Ditto all drug bans.
Just curious...
Since insurance pools represent funds for the payments of losses to similar risks, is it your view that in spite of the known damage done by tobacco (or other harder drugs), smokers/chewers should still be placed in normal risk pools? Or are you advocating that the gov. allow the use of drugs, just classify it into its own risk pool?
I understand how you feel. It doesn't feel good to be treated like a criminal. I can't blame pot smokers for laughing about the treatment of tobacco smokers. Same way that I will laugh when drinkers and fat asses are rounded up in the concentration camp in the name of public health. Schadenfreude is a natural human emotion. I'm guilty of it.
I'm sure that the Jews in the concentration camps felt really bad when their former neighbor unionists and communists were pulling up in the boxcars.
