Your stance on this one is again a socialist one, assuming the governments job is to prevent the individual from making the choice. Be it a good choice or a bad choice. The choice is still for the individual to make. The governments extent of power should be only to inform. The government should never have the power to make the choice for the individual. When it comes to tobacco, Fast Food, Seat Belts, Trans Fat, Eating Meat, Eating Cherries, Having a Cat in the House.......
All these things and so many more have studies attached to them that offers health detriments. Giving the government the power to take away one of them is giving them the power to take them all away and continuing to do so with anything they find to be in the best interest of the individual.
How can you support that?
