Obesity and smoking are very expensive to business. Smoking is a personhal choice, obesity is almost always a personal choice.
I'm not saying that people shouldn't pay for their risky lifestyle choices...I'm saying if they are going to pay for them it should be tied to what they pay in health Insurance.....not what a company pays you to do your job.
