Health care is one of the biggest drains on our economy.
There's no reason that the government should be spending tax dollars on smokers who make themselves sick by smoking.
This petition asks to no longer use government health care -- Medicare, Medicaid, etc -- for patients who are smokers and looking for treatment of smoking related diseases such as lung cancer, emphysema, high blood pressure, etc.
It's ridiculous to have us pay for those who intentionally make a decision to smoke, and have us foot the bill to keep them alive when they're acting to kill themselves.
