    Booze as bad as Smoking

    http://uk.news.yahoo.com/050204/140/fbrv0.html

    So all you do gooding lefties " you should pay more for health care if you're a smoker " crew and the "it should be banned - it's like, really bad for you" - booze is as deadly as cigs.

    So - should booze be banned then? on the current arguements, it should. AND u should pay more when u got to hospital when u fall over doing some kKrRraZzEE drunked stunt or your get other booze related illnesses like be refused liver transplants.

    It's not like we didn't know it wasn't true - but it shows you can't discriminate on something using the arguement it's bad for you so it must be banned - cause the same rules can be applied to many areas of society.

    Who wants to live for ever i'm sorry but humans have drank for hundreds of years i know its bad for you but nearly everything is if you do it to excess.

    Prohibition will not work look at what happened in the states.

    reading new scientist the other day and it said alcohol actually promotes the growth of cancers, increases the blood flow to it and all that.

    Everything in moderation i say.

    however none of you lot on here need to worry like cos you will all have the brains of 70 year olds when you are 40 and have alzheimers and parkinsons due to all the smarty munching in the 90's so you wont know what the hell is going on anyway

    yeah so who cares, live fast, die young, dont grow old in some state nursing home being left in your own excrement for hours while you dribble and watch daytime tv, all because your family doesnt care about you because you have talked bollocks since the day you turned 50, your brain having been fried by endless media propaganda, scaring you shitless that some terrorists might bomb you, or snakes will kill you, or evil killer bees will strike etc etc.

    bollocks to it all :lol:

    I think the solution is to let people do what the heck they want but privatise the NHS......... or at least make it very stringently means tested.

    Then its up to individuals themselves to decide on if they do/dont want to smoke or drink, and nobody can whine at drinkers/smokers for sapping resources (which they paid for anyways, ironically).

    Everyones happy.







    A good red wine is probably one of the greatest things on earth - I wouldnt give drink like that up for the world.
