more people are sicker/dying from not smoking than those who were from smoking. way to have the dumbest take of the week so far even with all the pro-iran shitheads spamming this place 24/7. and yea, kids should be out smoking, drinking and fucking instead of playing video games, eating goyslop and staring at their iphones all day.

Obesity:

Shouldn't be surprised you can't remember your own comments let alone read the motherfuckers before responding to someone who can do both.

You literally said above NO ONE should be smoking. Not only fucking kids. Not just fucking adolescents. Not any other bullshit. NO ONE

And I say to you, dumb fuck, fuck you and worry about yourself--you clearly have a lot to worry about

As someone who admittedly enjoys the odd cigarette with a drink outside a London pub, I do have mixed feelings about this ban.

Yes, smoking is terrible. If it develops into a long term habit. And it smells. And butts litter is annoying.

On the flip side, even without a ban, smoking rates have collapsed, far fewer people smoke these days compared to even 10 years ago. Smoking is also something that requires long term regular usage to develop into major health problems, people with smoking related illnesses typically die in their 60s, 70s, even 80s. The ban ignores millions have enjoyed social smoking without it turning into a health problem. Which means banning 20 year olds from enjoying cigarettes is a bit weird. A college kid who smokes too many cigarettes one night ends up with a sore throat. Meanwhile drink too much perfectly legal alcohol you could end up dead.

And smoking is a self imposed health disaster. Regular smokers who don't quit in time die earliernon average, but not people around you. The externalities from alcohol abuse is far more extensive and worse, smoking and driving doesn't kill, but drinking and driving does. Of any substances you could be using in your youth, smoking is probably the best one because it doesn't make you drunk, it doesn't lead to psychotic issues aka marijuana codepency increasingly does.

The smoking ban has high approvals because it's easy to approve banning something you don't do (and the vast majority don't smoke) and smoking has plenty of unpleasant stigmas attached to it, starting with the smell. But a ban does remind me of the Prohibition. And we all know how well that worked out. And it'll be intriguing to see if it makes smoking more attractive among youths.

Numbers don't work like that, unfortunately. Smokers die earlier, and faster. It's not 10 years of health problems before death. What really costs the health system are old people who live to be 95.

What a lot of non smokers don’t understand (at least American ones) is that a ton of smokers only do it socially when drinking. It is possible to be a smoker and not suddenly smoke a pack a day. Most people I know will smoke a cig when out late but otherwise don’t smoke on a typical day. That said, I smoke every day.
