So under your plan if you wanted a guaranteed job all you would have to do is start an organization that treats alcohol and tobacco users.  And then you would get tax money galore for as long as you lived.
Well these organizations which deal with the effects of alcohol and tobacco already exist at least in the uk, we have the nhs and the police. In this situation there would be competition to secure a job and a limited amount of jobs just as there isnow. The money going to these organizations to help them combat the effects of alcohol and tobacco would be as guaranteed as long as people consume alcohol and tobacco. Anyone who wanted to start a private health organization could do but it wouldn't be funded by tax.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
