Do you think a smoking ban would be a good thing in Polish restaurants and Bars? [217]
If you don't like carbon monoxide poisoning, then go home!
Touche!
Why? In Germany there are zones that only certain cars which meet stringent emission standards can drive through.
Ok, but this is what, like a 0.1% of the traffic or even less? It's such a small number that it falls into "interesting but insufficient" category;)
Once the government figures out that quite a bit of domestic abuse and violence stems from consumption of alcohol, I would expect that to go as well. We can't forgot all the hardship that families go through (and the burden on the public health system) when a loved one dies of heart disease, so no more fatty foods in restaurants.
Do you have any idea of how many people die and/or get terminally ill of smoking or involountary inhaling tobacco? Fat is not as great enemy and noone forces anyone to eat excessive amounts of fat (McDonald's is also your choice I myself am not tempted that much). I am quite thin, with average cholesterol, but I'm getting poisoned everytime I enter any bar because of the smoke.
Are you so lazy that you are not willing to go out for a smoke? I think this is actually a good law to impose (one of few I agree, but "letting the nature to decide" is not applicable here) but it'll serve EVERYONE, even you who don't agree with it. I didn't want to sound like that but I need to point out also that the costs of treatment of each person with lung cancers and other smoking-caused diseases is on the whole society. That is very expensive and not many of those people have ever paid for their treatment. How do you argue that? I don't want to be paying for your cancer treatment. Or mine because of you. Smoker:))))
