Dorothy asked:


The overweight child drops dead at 50, having paid into his/ her health plan without drawing on it, or pension provision. In countries with state pension schemes, like the UK, the hole in pension provision disappears.

Also, cigarette tax provides a substantial contribution to government revenue in the present crisis.

Isn’t it therefore patriotic and heroic to take up smoking on behalf of the nations of the west?
