I wonder if the sin tax would be offset by not having to pay the medical bills of indigent smokers?

Non smokers are not superior, it is the law in many places to ban smoking in public facilities because it is a known public health risk. It is easier for smokers to go outside to smoke than non-smokers to step outside to breathe. I have no problem with smokers. I know the addiction well. It's the age old story of your rights end where mine begin.
