To Ban or Not To Ban Smoking?


To ban smoking now is not a realistic goal. I will agree to ban smoking only after every smoker will honestly agree from his heart to such a ban on smoking.

This is true that smoking is a barbarian atavism that harms other people, but quitting smoking should be a voluntary act for each individual. Before that happens we can and should make smoking less harmful by introducing a new smoking culture.

Do I have an analogy to a new smoking culture? WC is known almost to everyone on the Earth. During the 1800s, people realized that poor sanitary conditions caused diseases. Having toilets and sewer systems that could control human waste became a priority to lawmakers, medical experts, inventors, and the general public.

In other words, do what you want to do, but the way you do it can be better than it is now. Today is the day for the public to rise up and make smoking laws and infrastructure a priority to save the planet from second-hand smoking.
