Yeah... but if you had to finance it via income taxes, then eveybody would have to pay for it, and wouldn't be as popular. Now they can just dump on the smokers, since eveybody hates them anyway Bingo.

To be fair about the costs of Uni Healthcare, the cost increase in taxes would be offset (in whole or in part) by not having to pay for your employer plan anymore (and, theoretically at least, the savings by the employer is equivalent to a juicy tax cut for businesses. Wait, why do Republicans hate this idea again?

).
