I am not a fan of banning things, but I think we all have our exceptions. I guess that makes us all hypocrites.
Cigs I’m torn on, while I think that if someone wants to do it regardless of if it kills them, I think that’s fine. But on the other hand, the chance to spare a new generation of the statistical amount of pain it will cause on seemingly random users.
(SciFi brain kicks in) And what if a cure for all cancers, heart conditions, etc, a world where most diseases were cured, then this talk would have to be revisited.
Back to reality, a world where cancer is often terminal. In that world, where we live, I like the idea of a law like, after X year, people under Y age cannot buy cigs. You can insert your own X and Y, I’m not debating that. I just think that eventually, it would be a long term positive thing for humanity to choose values for X and Y.
