I agree with what you say here, but the government doesn't consider what happens to our souls after we die when making laws.
What it does consider, as it did with smoking, is protecting us and others from the consequences of our actions. That may be the only angle we have left to stop this madness, at least until we win Americans over to Conservative values.
Good luck ever getting it back; for we've let Liberalism take over EVERY medium of communication in this country; from pre-school to mass marketing.
