That should be the case from the start or Obamacare. Governemt expenditures should only cover the basic needed services. The free market can then offer improved services in the form of pay for insurances. They do ask if you are a smoker or not. Now large groups for employers, they already factor in that a general percentage of people already smoke, drink, etc.
Exactly. People aren't going to stop smoking if you try to "ban" cigs. Remember how well prohibition went? Also, M.J.'s slowly becoming legal, recreationally, even in some of the redneck, fake Christian states.
Why are the Christians against God's green plants?
All red states are fake Christian states. They hide behind Christianity so they can discriminate against LGBTQ people and call it "freedom". All the while they're all banging each other's wives and watching their wives get it on with others. Just ask Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Newt Gingritch..
Careful... Your words are sounding bigoted, if not, slanderous.
exactly why drugs should be legal.
Its like importing an alien species to control the alien species you shouldnt have imported 15 years ago. Some lessons just never get learned.

Nah. Drug prohibition hasn't worked out well. I don't see why tobacco would be any different.Tobacco-Related Mortality

I say no. As others pointed out it opens it to the black market. I don't think tobacco companies should be allowed to add chemicals that increase their nicotine content or make it physically more addictive/ But I think the only additives tobacco companies should be able to add to their products is flavor additives.If they want to make grape, menthol, vanilla or what ever flavors then they should be allowed to. After all I can go to the liquor practically get those same flavors. But no one is lying their ass off about how big alcohol is marketing booze to little kids.Tobacco-Related Mortality

I wonder that myself.
Taxing added carbs by the gram would be interesting.
I don't know. It's already a problem that eating healthy is more expensive and time consuming. If you want to eat healthy you have to cook. If you don't want to cook and want a healthy sandwhich, you need whole grain bread, tomato slices, Romaine lettuce. Fish is good but very expensive and you have to cook it yourself or you'll get a bunch of breading and not much fish.

But who’s going to employ unmarriagable ugly fat women to work in government offices regulating compliance if we don’t create new pretexts to hire them into civil service jobs at 6 figures?
