For all your posts uog, You can't deny the fact that;
Personally; Smoking looks awful. Smells awful. tastes awful. Environmentally; Filthy gutters. Filthy footpaths. Filthy parks. Kills birds. Kills fishes. Kills people. kills small animals. Costs; Costs personal health. Costs 3rd persons health. Costs Health Care System. Costs in clean-up. Costs family finances. Costs time off from productive work. Benefits; 0 I'm sure there are a lot more downsides to smoking for no gain what-so-ever. If you have a health problem caused by smoking you should have to pay for your treatment with no health care rebate what-so-ever. From my T-shirt: "It's OK if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right." ;-) Posted by Jayb, Saturday, 10 May 2014 12:09:24 PM
