I believe in Liberty

How about a bazooka or a grenade launcher?
^An individual no. A militia yes.
Should a smoker be required to pay a fee to contribute to the health care costs of everyone else in the bar? For example, if a person has really bad asthma and suffers an attack from the cigarette smoke, who pays for the hospitalization?
Smokers should get tax credit for spending 7 less years on ssi and fewer years in extended care facilities. If you don't like smoke go to a different bar.
As was pointed out, whose paying if you get injured because you don't wear that seat belt?
I am. If I can't pay sue me and take my things. Maybe you should help to get motorcycles banned.
Legal throughout the US.
And I hope it stays that way.
Licensing occurs, in part, because beauticians can actually spread disease from customer to customer, without endangering themselves. Who's paying if you get hepatitis?
Again I am. Beauticians are licensed because beauty schools lobby for it. Janitors and cashiers spread disease too. Let's start a janitorial/cashier college and make sure they are licensed.

So, we agree there should be limits on weapons, and just draw the line a little differently.

How does that compare to the additional costs in lost productivity, additional health expenses, etc.? Got any hard numbers? Also, you didn't answer the question. What's the smokers responsibility regarding the damage his smoking causes others?

I am. If I can't pay sue me and take my things. Maybe you should help to get motorcycles banned.

1) Motorcycles riders will still be required to have insurance.
2) What if you have no things? Who pays then?

Do you really not understand the difference in seriousness between spreading contact diseases and blood-born diseases?

Also, please link to the source of your research on beautician license history. It will be amusing, I'm sure.
 
Mine was not sarcasm. Eliminating food stamps will bring back starvation.

I'm not for eliminating food stamps. I'm for eliminating 80% of what they can buy with food stamps.

Uncooked meat, fresh veggies and fruit (no canned stuff), loaf of bread, uncooked pasta (spaghetti and elbows only), milk, and that's it. Those on food stamps will eat healthier than anyone else. If they don't like it, simple solution: get a job.

Really? Ohh man I had no idea. I've changed my mind.

Seriously, food stamps is an emergency program from the great depression. The statement that Americans would starve without it is fear mongering.

I say we let them all gather in a park and then we throw potatoes at them.

lol. I'm not sure where you live, but I bet most people don't realize that down in Provo/Orem, there might not be anyone left to actually throw the potatoes...

I bet Orem/Provo gets more medicaid/food stamps money than the rest of the state. Quite conservative down there.

Haha.

Not all smokers receive SSI and not all SSI recipients smoke. Same with care facilities. At least try to make a valid counter arguement. It isn't that hard.

Do you have any data to support this statement? I am by no means a nanny state guy but these programs do have a time and place.
