Smoking Joe's pension and healthcare plan

Ever felt cheated by the regular insurance and pension companies? How come you as a smoker pay higher premiums than non-smokers? After all, you won't be around as long. You won't be getting that money back.

We all know that old people are the biggest drain on healthcare resources, and the older they get, the more pension they draw. It's simple mathematics. And yet the one sector of society that won't live to see old age has to pay the most for the privilege of not getting there. Something's obviously wrong. Yes, it's a rip-off.

Here we are with an ageing population, a skyrocketing pension bill, healthcare in crisis, and who has to pay for it? The people who gracefully disappear before they're helplessly geriatric, the ones who've paid extra taxes on tobacco all their lives. It's a travesty.

But Smoking Joe gives you an alternative. An ethical alternative. Write to him for details today.
