Many insurance companies can factor in tobacco use in order to increase health insurance rates for smokers.

Well, I don't stay home either, but I am also respectful of other people and do what I reasonably can to keep myself and others healthy. I don't "force" my opinion on people any more than you do. I deal with facts and logic. You and others can freely choose to agree or not or just completely ignore.
Wow you deal with facts and I don’t. That’s a little self righteous and your posts insinuate you use logic and are correct and I do not. [emoji23]

Sorry I incorrectly assumed you had group coverage of Medicare which do not charge extra for smokers. I didn’t know you have Obamacare.
