I would be all for a real push to follow in New Zealand's footsteps in enforcing a date of birth cut-off. Cigarettes, and nicotine generally, are horrendous and aside from having impacted me personally, put an unnecessary drain on public resources. They are wholly bad, and the rhetoric I've heard from people stating "you have to die of something" is, to me, entirely selfish thinking.

[amanaplanacanal]

Are they a drain on public resources though? I’ve read that non-smokers have higher lifetime health cares costs because smokers on average die so much younger.

[superchroma]

No I'm in the "quit fucking around" camp. They need to be banned already. Rip the plaster off.

[DaveExeter]

Yeah, but smoking makes you look cool.

[missingdays]

Does it?
