Exactly, but we can't outlaw it. It creates a HUGE amount of revenue. Plus, there are those like me, who like to enjoy a beer, or some whiskey, and just sit down and watch a football game. I'm not causing anyone harm, so why punish me?

Well, that's totally fine. I'm talking about the kind of people that get drunk at night and think that driving home after shoving 8 cans of beer down their throat is ok.

Exactly. But the point is, we can't outlaw, or make it smoking, or drinking too expensive.

actually yes they can.

First, if you smoke, non-smokers near you will be annoyed.

But more importantly, passive smoking also bring sickness (and deadly sickness). The smoke that smoker exhaled still contains dangerous compounds. And the people around you, want it or not, will inhale that smoke.

The ban on public smoking was there for a reason.

More dangerous, smoking near a pregnant woman or baby may cause serious sickness or even death to the baby AND the mother.

But I agree that the tax from tobacco is too large to ban tobacco, the same with beer and wine. Wat we can do is to limit their usage, banning the drunk driving and the public smoke, then see those laws to be ignored.

they don't think that driving home when drunk is ok. They are well aware that it's dangerous. But they still do it because simply they don't think they're drunk. Or maybe their mind doesn't work anymore.

No aister it's because after years of continuously drinking beer they only have about a couple million brain cells still left.
