The is the logical conclusion of universal healthcare. Why would you allow smoking, junk food, etc if you want government to pay for your healthcare? Can’t have it both ways.
Now do a cost/benefit analysis of end-of-life care for grandma. Universal healthcare ain’t paying for that shite either. Instead, a competitive marketplace would reward health lifestyles and punish non-healthy lifestyles. No need for the gov’t to get involved at all.

Smoked a lot of weed when I was younger, but NEVER partook of tobacco.
I HATE cigarette smoke.
But you know what I hate MORE: Anti-smoking Jihadists.
How fking INSUFFERABLE must you be to make me CHEER for smokers?!?

if medical costs of the complications associated with smoking and their earlier death rates are more than the Social Security payments of them living longer by quitting
I vaguely recall a study a while back that healthcare costs of having smokers die early was less than for people who lived to a ripe old age. If true, and if reducing healthcare costs was the goal, perhaps they should be handing out cigarettes.

Anyone stupid enough to prefer seeing Camilla instead of Diana naked, is too stupid for any position of public trust.

Friend,
I must strenuously disagree with your statement especially as it applies to alcohol.Having a cocktail or two is conducive to civilized interaction and discourse. Additionally, we would all be better off if we could consume more of the grape, both in society and I suspect healthwise on a personal level.

Friend, A society that bans alcohol, tobacco, and other mind altering drugs is a society that cares about its citizens. Poisons like these have no place in a civilized world.
Let me know when opioids are banned.

Tobacco has been the source of untold misery, morbidity and mortality for generations; and in earlier times the whole tobacco industry in the US was built on the backs of slave labor.
Oh, I get you.
You tie tobacco to colonizers so being against that totally fits your anti-white mindset.

It is possible to drink in moderation w/o raping your daughters or getting castrated. Literally billions of people do it all the time. Billions

Hell no. Tobacco lobby is too big. Government rakes in that tax money.

Interesting. China, India and Brazil produce a lot more tobacco than us. That surprises me.

To be fair, you see either of them naked maybe every day or two.
You have to listen to them all the time, and I could make a case for Camilla over Diana there.
