I didn't say the government should force you to stop smoking or drinking, only that it should encourage moderation or abstinence in those things,They already do that. Smoking rates have plummeted in the last few decades. Drinking is no longer what it used to be. NCO and Officer Clubs on military bases and posts are closing because young people don't go out and drink as often with their buddies as earlier generations. The military responded with Unified Clubs (officers and enlisted combined) but those are closing too. VFW posts are going down the same route. Back in the day, my father or uncle would drink with their workers on construction sites during breaks. That is now verboten (for good reason). The list goes on. |
