I guess they should ban all the chippies too. Everyone is unhealthy in their own way and that’s the cost of doing business. Socializing healthcare does not require banning unhealthy behavior. It turns out that money does in fact grow on trees and they can make more because it’s fucking fake and it always has been. How are we going to pay for this!?! You literally create money. Governments do it all the time for missiles .

Cigarettes don't grow out of the ground to be able to be deep fried. Some private enterprise manufactures them for sale.

Just ban the sale of them in the country. They offer no positive for society or humanity whatsoever. Chippies at least have their origins in actual food sustenance.

If some new slow method of societally expensive suicide hit the market, it would get banned quick smart. Cigarettes have only stuck around so long because of legacy and well funded lobbyists and PR / marketing types that have been happy to lie at the cost of millions of lives.

Nice, let's defend that.

Many discussions about freedom are just marketing and corporate interests in a trench coat.

I guess this is my favorite bug bear now.

Privatise the profits and socialise the costs. It's the American way!

Let's hope it recedes back to the US sooner rather than later. Let this be the first domino.
