New Zealand - you gotta be this old to have rights.
RE: New Zealand - you gotta be this old to have rights.
Quote:Big government worshippers are always in favor of legislation that tells other people what to do.
 They love legislating dumb behavior - until it's THEIR dumb behavior being outlawed.

And trust me - we can ALL find something the other bonehead is doing wrong
And dumb Anarchists like you just wanna do whatever you want regardless of who gets hurt Dodgy

Quote:You still have not detailed the harm you incur when an idiot smokes in the privacy of his home.

Health care costs aside. Unless you are in favor of all aspects of your health being government-mandated.

Edit to add
Actually, he did your just to dense to get it  Dodgy


Quote:Ever seen the movie "Demolition Man"?

I see it as a cautionary tale.

I think you would see it as a feelgood romp about a bright future.

You = Dr Cocteau
Me = Edgar Friendly
Because when i want to figure out complex political issues i turn to B rate action films  Dodgy

But while were at it ever seen The Purge  Dodgy

Do you consider any other lifestyle choices to have as significant a monetary cost to society?  Obesity comes to mind, but that's not a lifestyle choice.  The idea that riding motorcycles incurs a comparable amount of cost to society as smoking is probably not borne out by the statistics.  You're essentially making the argument that if we ban smoking for the societal costs, we would be justified in banning X for having similarly comparable costs.  I don't know what you're putting in the place of X.  Do you?
