I agree for the most part.  I think an exception should be made for military members though.  I can remember back when I served there being "beer machines" (pretty much like a soda machine) as well as cigarette machines in the barracks areas.  Before my time the "MRE's" (called C-Rations) used to include a cigarette and matches.


While I don't advocate smoking cigarettes (I was addicted for many years) I feel that anyone old enough to serve our country should be able to choose whether or not he/she wants to smoke or drink.  I also think that they should be afforded the privilege to vote (voting is not a "right").
