Big Tobacco, Anti-Smoking Groups Target ObamaCare

Newser reports:

Big Tobacco and anti-cancer activists are lining up against a provision in ObamaCare that would let insurers charge smokers more, the Washington Post reports. It's no small spike, either: One study found that a low-income smoker could see premiums leap from $708 to $3,308. "Our concern is that a tobacco use surcharge carries a risk of rendering health insurance unaffordable for many people,” says an anti-smoking activist.
