I worked and did research in the human physiology and exercise science professions for 5 years and never saw worse autopsy's than those who smoked....As well as those who didn't (2nd hand smoke). There are many things that are legal but that doesn't make it right, fundamentally.

Plus, if it's saving the company money on insurance, couldn't that potentially be more money in your pocket? It's certainly a possibility.
Who said anything about compulsive? My point is you said no smoking no medical period. What if you only indulge in a cigar every once in a while? You are lumping all the smokers into one category. The compulsive kind. My point is you shouldn't punish everyone just because a few over indulge. What's next I can't go to the beach because sun exposure causes cancer?
