That's already happening, smokers being the original class of "prey" that the other classes have smugly attacked with government encouragement.
The next group is that defined by the government as "obese," though it appears that alchohol users are in the bull pen.
It's all going swimmingly for the Nanny Staters so far.
I predict the underground wins, at the cost of a government that's given up any pretense to representing a "free" society.
Amazing how fast it all happened once the ball got rolling.
I think smokers are actually one of the latest groups to suffer the lash. But certainly not the last. The increase of laws and regulations restricting liberty has gone hand-in-hand with increased taxation and data collection reducing prosperity. Control is the ultimate goal. Control the economy through confiscation, redistribution and earnings suppression. Control the people through laws, regulations and balkanization.
