This is why it isn't a central point to my argument. Although we do ban smoking indoors because it has negative health consequences to people other than yourself.
But for all these points the Government does try to reduce the levels of smoking, drinking and bad diet. There are many policies designed to reduce it. I am not arguing for vaccine mandates and I am making the point none of us are the centre of the universe and our actions do have consequences to others.
