    You’re changing the topic. The government has the right to ban cigarettes because they have the right to support healthcare infrastructure.

    Whether or not they should ban them is a whole separate topic.

      Whether or not they have the right, was never the argument here, it’s always been about whether they should or not.

      Dodging my question because it backs you into a corner really doesn’t help your side either.

        Seems like a good thing to me. Let people decide for themselves, it’s not the government’s job to tell them what they can and can’t put in their body.

        Your exact words. You said nothing about if a government “should” do anything, you said it’s not their job. You lost the argument just move on.

          I will move on, but only because you’ve started arguing on bad faith. Do better.

            LOL if you actually think not allowing you to move the goal posts is “bad faith” then you truly are a dumbass.

            Actually, that would perfectly explain why this is such a difficult concept for you.
