Moral dilemma for me here.

As a rule, I'm against the initiation of force which basically underpins all legislation.

However...

I'm also aware of the psychological manipulation that went in to convincing people that smoking was a good thing. It was a cleverly laid multigenerational trap and the people behind it weren't good people.

So I find myself in the unusual position of supporting the state on something.

My brain hurts.
