Wrong. You are supporting the confiscation of private property in the name of public good. That stance is very socialistic and to call it anything else is a lie.

Will you fall for the obesity arguments too? Will you support a ban of red meat? What activities do you participate in that could some day be deemed unhealthy and a burden on society?

Wrong. I am supporting basic health regulations for the common good, and you are opposing them. There is no "confiscation" involved.

"That stance is very socialistic and to call it anything else is a lie."

Bull. That stance - supoorting public health - is the basis for such things as the health codes that restaurants currently operate under. Is forbidding restaurants to serve rotten meat "socialistic'? Of course not, and banning smoking in restaurants isn't either.

You are clutching at straws and spewing hyperbole. You have no argument.
