    Perhaps they should also not hire people that drink alcohol, whitewater raft or consume high fructose corn syrup too. It is easy to point at smokers, but overweight people are doing just as much harm by sitting on their couch as they eagerly await the next finalist on American Idol. Plus if you smoke 2 cigarettes a day, you’re really not doing your body much harm. It’s just another way to deny someone their rights.
