Why is the government interfering in our lives, banning smoking,fried foods, etc? |
what business is it of the government whether we smoke, or eat fried foods, wear our seat belts, wear a helmet while riding a bicycle or motorcycle???? Now they want to tell you whether you can smoke in your own home or in your own car??? Why do smokers need to pay such a high price in taxes?? So we can have a better health care system?? Why don't the doctors and hospitals just lower their fees??? If everyone quit where would that revenue come from anyway??? In NY they are banning saturated fats, it should be my choice whether I want to eat it or not. Where does it end, I thought this was America???? Because liberal Dumbocrats want to get into every area of your life and CONTROL things. Thats why they want so many taxes. They think that THEY know whats best for you more than YOU do. THEY know how you should spend your money! It's all about POWER and CONTROL. Butt OUT of my life! * First of all they are not banning fried food, or saturated fat. They are banning TRANS FAT. It is different. If you are going to make an argument like this, get the facts straight or else you make everyone look bad who agrees with you. Secondly. You have a good point. When did we decide that it is the government's job to protect us from ourselves? I've hear it said that it is the government's job to protect those who can not protect themselves. When did grown adults get lumped into the category of those who can not protect themselves? Children, or disabled people, but adults? Your cigarette dollars do not go toward a better health care system. As far as I know the health care in not yet a government affair. Many want it to be, but as of yet, it is not. I can not tell you where it ends. We have gotten carried away with the making of laws. Check out the libertarian party (google it) to join in the fight against this non-sense. Because fat, uneducated Americans are a drain on the economy and on our failing health care system. Because of the whacko liberals that believe you are not intellegent enough to know how to live your own life. so you're mad because the government is trying to make you healthier so you don't have a heart attack or get lung cancer...wow. Because there are too many liberals that want to tell us how to run our lives and control what we do and how we do it. They can't even run there own lives, I'll be dammed if I let them run mine. Whenever you talk abou the government, all you have to do is follow the money trail. The government pays social security and medicare. The more people that smoke and eat fat foods, the more money the government has to pay to keep them healthy. (Isn't it ironic though, that the government collectes biliions of dollars every year from taxes on cigarettes and alcohol?) |
