It has been well documented but sorely unpublished and promulgated that smokers are actually a boon to overall health costs since they often don't linger and exhaust resources and crowd facilities.

"And such were some of you..." As crazy, nasty, stupid, and selfish as the behavior is, they're still human beings with souls. I'll praise the Living God in Heaven with those He chooses to call out and heal!

Sorry, I though you posted it; it's a bit old now, but the upshot was that smokers cost less over their lifetimes to a free-health care program where the lunch counter is open all the time because they don't live long enough to get so sick that they drain the system.

Guess I'll have to go hunting for it.
