Okay. You would think that if someone made the willful choice to consume it and developed cancer that they should pay for the cancer treatments? Same with the "smokes."
But why can't it be just like how if you drive a car you have to pay for your own insurance to do so? Do you see the justification?
That if you want to consume cancer causing alcohol or tobacco that you should be required to have private insurance for it. Or perhaps have more taken out of SS for it? After all you want to work your fair share in this country, don't you? You want to be responsible for your own actions? Hence you should be required to purchase Alcohol and Tobacco Cancer Insurance.
Just think of all the jobs that would create in the Insurance Industry
And you would have to have or show proof of insurance when you go to that foreign owned convenience store right in the middle of your neighborhood.
And perhaps if you need an ID to vote you should also be required to show an id to buy alcohol or tobacco, an ID that say's you have a home! I have a theory that alcohol creates homelessness, perpetuates homelessness. But I think it keeps people on the same downward route. Perhaps it is the only thing that gives them will to live when homeless? Even though I would assert that it is the ultimate cause of their homelessness.
When talking about lost revenue perhaps we should be thinking of industries that could arise from the change that caused the lost revenue, as per above.
I think that we need to take the weight of the shoulders of some of the good people in our country. We need to take other people's burdens off the shoulders of the good.
