How is it morally right for the government to tax us to pay for healthcare?
I didn't say that it was.
What I said was that smokers cost tax payers money.
A. They should have to pay for that (via the "sinful" sin tax). <<-- the point I was making
B. The government shouldn't provide any assistance to smokers (i.e. if you smoke then you lose the ability to utilize any government funded health facility). <<-- an alterternative that will never happen
