In order of danger:
1. Meat eating
2. Smoking
3. Drinking

Interestingly, research shows that moderate drinkers live longer than teetotalers.

Saying one **** is like one unit is just arbitrary. Is one cigar one unit?

Someone smoking 20 a day every day would be considered a normal smoker, someone drinking 20 units a day would be a full on alcoholic.

Your probably right case

But other things cause long ones job, so I future no one sacked, I liked that one

Our partner walking out on us

People being killed in road accidents

etc,etc

what do you propose we ban all these??????????????????????????????????????
or tax them perhaps

People make their choices, life is not risk free
Reduce tax on alchohol and tobacco allow free market forces to govern price
This would help our society it generates more money
including more money for our health service enabling to work better

it is to over eating including sweet stuff

When I'm abroad and look at the booze prices in supermarkets and often the bars they are mostly far cheaper than here. And I mean western european countries not Romania. Yet some say we drink too much here because it's far too cheap and need to increase it?

If you wanted to be a p*ss head, this is the wrong country to do it!

You have to drink massive amounts of alcohol daily for decades for it to kill you.

My Grandfather for example was a chronic alcoholic for decades. When he died his liver was fine. Died of lung cancer. Smoker.

I've had two totally independent friends both by advised by doctors at just 22 and 19 respectively to curb their drinking otherwise they'd be either dead or their liver dead.
