Apparently a sedentary lifestyle is an even greater risk to life. I didn't know that. Just posted it downstream somewhere.

I think if people can quit, and it doesn't ruin their life to quit, that's fine, and good, and probably healthy. But I don't want the government in the prohibition business, nor do I want them refusing people medical care based on perceived "bad" behavior. What are we going to do? Let gang members bleed out because they were bad citizens? Sure, some people would go for that. Me, I don't want to live in that kind of society.
