Everyone is given one year to register as a smoker. Those who do will receive a government issued photo ID card. Only those able to produce this smokers card will be legally allowed to purchase cigarettes. After the one year cut off no further smokers cards will ever be issued. This means that those who currently smoke will be able to legally continue to smoke, but there will be effectively zero new smokers. In addition, those smokers that want to quit but find it difficult simply have to cut up their smokers card in which case they will be unable to purchase any more cigarettes. To prevent abuse those with smokers cards would be limited to purchasing a single packet a day, and heavy fines and/or jailtime would result from buying cigarettes for others.
sounds like fascism. Smoking is a choice stupid, fuck off.
Adam Lopez
Great idea comrade!
Isaiah Martinez
Tabaco companies will lobby the shit out of you.
Christopher Roberts
how would this even work from a supply and demand POV? The gas station is just going to assume they need to buy x amount of cartons? I fucking hate you aussiefags

Fuck off poofta

well, atleast they arnt like the gas companies that will just kill you and dump your body in the desert

I can get behind this idea.

No boots on my neck.
It's also good population control for stupid people. Conservatives bitch about HIV and abortion... it keeps nigger pop down.
Christopher Campbell
how about this:
abandon socialized healthcare. remove regulations. people will have to pay for their own healthcare. smokers won't get cheap plans because they are smokers. either they stop smoking to lower their health care costs or they just die of cancer.

How about we not base our laws on what some basement-dwelling Australinigger on Sup Forums considers "degenerate" and let people do what they please and maybe you can go fuck off elsewhere OP you kangaroo sodomizing son of a bitch
Evan Roberts
Yeah, cause being told what to do and having regulations sounds like a lot of fun. You only have one life asshole, I'm not gonna waste it living in a society where I'm given a slice of my cake only to have the rest of it thrown away. I want it shrink wrapped, put it in the fridge for leftovers. Maybe i want to come back maybe i wanted to test my will power and see if i could quit for an extended amount of time but i never really wanted to give it up my entire life. I'm pretty sure that's fascism..being told what i can and can't with or without limitations
Mason Butler
Because niggers will rob convenience stores and steal smokes which they can then sell to other niggers or whites who wanna smoke
Ethan Murphy
It baffles me how many people on this board are jewpilled about smoking. Big tobacco is one of the few industries not run by Jews, while the anti-smoking crusaders are the lead by the Jewish establishment. Think about it.

Wow there isn’t a story about this already or anything. This thread is dumb.
Nathan Adams
make the ciagarettes free or tax free so smokers support the idea, if you get caught reselling them you lose your almost free fags and have to buy on the shrinking balck market. There will awlays be illegal tobacco just like drugs but so few people will smoke they may as well buy weed or mdma for the same cost.
Eli Wilson
Just because degenerates are often smokers, does not make the act of tobacco smoking itself degenerate. Look at history. All great figures of the past 500 years were tobacco smokers. The fact of the matter is, tobacco is an ancient medicine that possesses nootropic, anti-aging, and anti-carcinogenic properties. The anti-smoking "science" is not science at all, but rather mounds of useless soft epidemiological data which in many cases is contradictory (see Japan).
Adam Wilson
>children steal parents' ciggies Great plan, OP. Surely everyone will stop smoking.

Cuntland has those packs too? I thought that was just us. And they banned menthol here aswell, which creates a unique opportunity if you can source it...
Bentley Martin
Yes. Any non smoker with a smoker in the family would get one. Smoker registration would be u usually high, and everyone's data on smoking population would get all messed up.

Fucking simple ass nigger.

dogs are not humans.
2 COPD and dead lungs are a killer.
Tobacco has been very hard to prove its a killer. Double blind controlled studies are useless, because the effects are so varied. Mouth cancer, lung cancer, ear-nose-throat cancer, pancreatic cancer. etc...
Hell just use your own life experience, look at old smokers and old non smokers.
just because we have no mechanistic cause broken down yet does not mean the correlation is wrong. Look at gravity, we've never seen a graviton, we only posit its existence. But no one argues with gravity. Even though it is still an inductive syllogism.
It has potent multifaceted effects of this we are certain. Pulling those apart though borders on immoral, due to the risks involved.

>dogs are not humans. They still hold extreme explanatory power in the realm of science. In fact, experimental studies are more valuable than epidemiological ones. >2 COPD and dead lungs are a killer. Tobacco does not cause COPD. The reason why smokers succomb to COPD is because they use filtered cigarettes which deposits fine strands of hot cellulose acetate fibers into the lungs which cannot readily be broken down. The acute response is inflammation, and prolonged exposure results in scarring and chronic inflation and irreversible buildup of these fibers. Tobacco does not "deaden" the lungs either. >Hell just use your own life experience, look at old smokers and old non smokers. Confirmation bias. Discarded. >just because we have no mechanistic cause broken down yet does not mean the correlation is wrong. The mechanistic and hard studies demonstrate the total opposite and if you look at the correlative studies, you will find that the designs of them are extremely flawed as the participants self-select. The researchers a priori assume that smoking is bad for you and are funded by anti-smoking organizations looking for a particular effect.

Ryder Diaz
Your misuse of the term "a priori" made me cringe hard user. Leave it to the academics writing in analytic philosophy pls.
Nathan Nguyen
I smoked for ten years, quit for three, and smoked non filtered tobacco almost hourly from July to Ocotober of this year.
I don't have COPD, but only a fool would think tobacco smoke doesn't have horrible cumalitive negative health effects on the human body. I'm sure tobacco does have some positive effects, but both the short and long term negative effects are tremendous.
Jason Miller
It's commonly "misused" as such in medical literature. What is cringe-worthy is how you think such a term is only to be confined to obscure academic philosophy.
tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/11/suppl_1/i51 In addition to the errors of drawing causation from a correlation (with non-randomized samples to boot), the oral cancer studies failed to include most important omitted variable, the now established number one cause of oral cancer, HPV infection. If you do not account for this variable for oral tobacco usage and so called cancer risk thereof, the entire study is worthless.
Connor Brown

I would track down anyone who voted your plan in and cram lit cigarettes up their asshole until they died.
Why not just stop being a little bitch and let people smoke?
Nolan Russell
Just buy a pack a day and never smoke them. How hard is that, retard?
This thread is stupid.
Tobacco in every field.

sounds expensive, just make cigarettes more deadly and leave it alone

so if you have HPV which if memory serves is a 50/50 shot by the time you're 40. do not chew
Liam Gutierrez
No one likes smoking the first time. It's funny how powerful it is, to creep into political argument even. But what if I want to smoke sometime??
Tobacco should be on the black market and you should support it
