btw, almost every person in my family smokes cigs, including my 94 year old grandmother. 2 packs a day for 50+ years and no sign of cancer. no cancer in any of them. so i guess the cancer "link" isnt definitive either. why should my family subsidize the med bills of people who are predisposed to getting cancer?

should you pay more in taxes because some fat fucks each fast food daily and are getting fat? how about chocolate? should we tax hershey for their chocolate bars because if you eat enough it'll be bad for your health. my real question is, where do we draw the line? when it affects something you enjoy? |
YOU=RETARD.
No point in talking to you. consider yourself ignored. I have better things to do than to argue with people that refuse to listen to LOGIC and REASON. You admit your family smoke. Therefor you are BIASED. So anything that goes against your bias is dismissed. That is neither logical or reasonable or intelligent. Once again if you would put EMOTION aside open your mind abnd look at things FACTUALLY then you realize I am correct.
You could think the sky is green with purple polka-dots that doesn't make it true and wishing for it to be true doesn't make it true and denying that the sky is blue doesn't make is green with purple poka-dots. Then sooner you accept the truth in things even if it goes against what you previously believed the happier you will be and you won't be living a life of ignorance. If everyone believed that way 99% of the world's problems would be over.
