60. and that family should not even have to worry about whether they can

cover those medical bills. It shouldn't even be an issue for them. They should be provided all the health care benefits they need, and it shouldn't cost them a dime, except for a fair tax, taken from EVERYONE'S paycheck, NOT by taxing ME, as a smoker, for something I choose to do.

Free health care isn't really 'free', it comes with a price, and that price should be everyone contributing their fair share to it, based on a percentage of their income, whether they make minimum wage or top CEO pay. It SHOULD NOT be funded by ONE targeted group of people. To claim otherwise is simply ridiculous.
