Re: Smoking Tyranny?!

Comparing smoking to obesity or anything else I have heard of so far in my 40-some years is a far stretch to just downright silly. This is a perfect example of how the issue always gets muddied up with non-related side issues. Sure, obesity is a problem for those who are obese. Thus farly, I have yet to have, or hear about anyone else, ever having food forced down their throats by overeaters eating in the same room. I can't figure out why, but for some people, it would be easier explaining how a computer works to my cat than to make this differentiation clear about forcing costs and health risks on others vs. other issues. Yeah, obesity costs us in increased healthcare costs, .. so I suppose there is some commonality to both on that point. But beyond that, ... ?
And how does a person know when they are getting enough tar, anyway ?
