Smoking and drinking does not just impact the individual who chooses to
take these substances. It effects all of society. All taxpayers are footing the bill for paying for the astronomical costs of medical care for all the medical problems caused by use of these things. Your money is going towards liver transplants once they drink themselves out of a funcitioning liver, you're paying for the hospital visits for heart attacks, lung cancer when poeple voluntarily subject their vital organs to harmful substances. You're paying for the costs of court appointed counsel to defend the drunk drivers who cause accidents that kill our children, our family members. It does not just effect the indivual, it effects us all. [View Quote] |
