Why Even Tougher Regulations on Smoking Are Justified

Worse Than Heroin? –
Jan. 5, 2018 – Some 40-50% of smokers try to quit each year, but fewer than 5% of them succeed … In fact, smoking also harms bystanders in a more important way: Each person who becomes a smoker makes it more likely that others will become smokers as well … today’s environment is different mostly because of the taxes and other regulatory measures we have taken to discourage smoking. Well and good, but does anyone think that still having more than one smoker in six people is a desirable population ratio?
