The problem with these very logical and sensible plans is that when someone is lying there dying, we have to be willing to still enforce the rule. "Sorry, bub, no health care for you -- you're a goner, make your peace."

I think that is a very fair and accurate comparison with the monies wasted by smokers. Equally stupid yet intentional actions which result in high health care expenditures based
solely on the actions of the patient. An expenditure which the innocent client base if forced to
eat over and over and over.
The only difference between the two actions is that smoking is legal but riding unrestrained in a vehicle isn't.
Timber, you are two for two so far this week. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
