Do you or do you not think that kids raised from newborn to 18 or so in a smoke filled environment are at more risk for cancer than those raised in a smoke free environment?

Tests show they are not. But all of this is beside the point.

You think, using "the children" as an excuse, that you have the right to dictate to other people about how they should run their lives. That's your starting point whenever some "problem" comes up. That's why you love the State. You want to use it to control people's lives.

I think that we should leave other people alone to run their lives as they please. That's my starting point. That's why I look upon the State as an evil to be used only when forced to.

Your outlook is the reason why you like the "Global Warming" argument. It gives you an excuse to order other people about.
