    Weed can have huge benefits for health, just look at multiple sclerosis.

    Sugar and fat are good if not abused. But yes, I do believe restaurants shouldn’t be allowed to sell 2000 calories monstrosities.

    Smoking tobacco has zero (health) benefits. It’s just a net loss on society (except for those who produce, sell and tax it) and thus shouldn’t exist.

    EDIT: better?

      Tobacco is used as an organic pesticide

      Nicotine is also being tested for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

      Do alcohol…and tell me if it should be allowed next.

        nobody has proposed banning them for those uses. are you asserting that someone has?
