How do we understand a society so determined to place oppressive restrictions on itself. Perhaps a second look at your sources of information driving your perspectives might help shed a little light on the situation. When you look at all the information and opinions available, it all boils down to one simple truth.
The Public Health movement represents a joining of theology with politics, promoted with highbrow propaganda. Because you can not legitimately describe “disease management” as Science, Research or Medicine. Although the protagonists will assure us they represent them all.
False and misleading advertising applies, in the use of the funds and resources of medical charities and Government expenditures, provided for something which can never describe the prescriptions of hatred and divisions provided, by demeaning judgments in place of medical treatments.
If there is a legitimate use of the term “pandemic” in describing a non contagious disease it has to be in reference to the Public Health Ministries who coined the term “Sin taxes” and have worked diligently to promote their legitimacy in planting the seeds of division and hatred in our once unified communities.
In 1945 when UNESCO set out to do battle with Nazi ideologies, they defined Racism as a comparison of one group of Human beings with another, in mean spirited demeaning and hateful ways. That same mindset resides today in the auspices of “Disease management” a political rendition of the same principles we understood then and only ignorance praises today, through the Cult of public health.
Contagion is evident in the minds of men, who prefer to react with anger in reaction to what is only self denial in balancing the lost integrity of their own character by the truth revealed. Once the learned among us step back and see “Health Intervention” for the ignorance it embraces, we can start out on the long road back to sanity and confidence in community, as our greatest hope in dealing with the problems of the future. Balancing the ethics and re-establishing some respect of moral or ethical boundaries, to solidify the integrity and trust in our processes of science and ingenuity. We don’t have to wait for another Holocaust to sober us up. We can simply look back and understand the mistakes of the past and recognize their origins.
Consider the source and follow the money. I am sure you can figure it out from there.

Hey, Dave! Great site. I’ve linked to your excellent work on the second hand smoke myth on my own blog.
If you’re interested, I just did a post on the Boston Public Health Commission’s attempt to ban tobacco sales in drug stores and college campuses, and to outlaw cigar bars (I’m serious!) in five years. You may find it interesting. Keep up the good work!

Nice, but I’d suggest you add the URL for that article, otherwise future visitors won’t know what you’re talking about. (I found it clicking on your name.)
They don’t have the balls to ban it, because they make so much money from it. I’ve suggested that the tobacco companies pick one state, presumably California but the Massholes would do, and refuse to sell their products there under any circumstances. Close down any warehouse that supplies anyone in the state. Then sit back and wait for the screaming. The black market would dwarf that of drugs, and the state would lose billions in tax money. Then let the hypocrites get down on their nanny knees and beg to have the product back.
Then say “no.”

Oh, yeah. D’uh! Here it is:

As for the rest of your comment, I see where you’re coming from, but you’re also punishing smokers with this idea, and they’ve been kicked around enough, don’t you think?
But if you really insist, I nominate California. ;)

Me too. I wrote this article back in 1999:

…with the details of how to do it and what the likely results would be.
Smokers will do just fine. Within a week or three they’ll have a steady supply. But the rest of the state will be in big trouble.
