To the person who blames this on "obamacare" please realize that the real DEATH PANELS are Big Insurance. They mobilize their forces in the Tea party to shout down and disrupt anything the democrats do. The somehow convince people that cutting these greedy CEOs out of the picture amounts to Socialism (when what they are really thinking of is Stalinism). THAT is the reason there is no public option even though it has been proven to cut costs (because you do not have to pay for outrageous salaries, corporate jets, lobbying junkets etc. with your premium dollars)
This smacks of another campaign by big insurance to lower their costs. And yes, I have heard that the next step will be denying benefits to smokers who get sick.
I have since quit, but when I was the only smoker among 10 "healthy" people, I took ZERO sick days and didn't cost my employer a red cent. The others were continually calling out sick and maxing out their sick days. THIS IS BULLS#IT
Anyway, people just wake up and realize that Big Insurance is just trying another tactic to keep their profits in tact.
And also, most drug users are occasional weekend users. Drug testing should be banned as well.
Smokers need not apply for a job
