Well, wait a minute now, we've decided we're against "prohibition"


whether it's alcohol, and soon to be pot. The moral rule here is that it is up to you how you live your life, and moderate the pleasure/how you kill yourself scales.

So why wouldn't that be true for Gatorade and cigarettes? We incur a tax to cover for the societal expense of cigarettes but I've seen it argued that people dying of cigarettes is cheaper than then the other outcome, medical costs in old age. Morality is a fuzzy thing some times.
