Asked and answered. Snerk. Gubmint is promoting
and
subsadising.industries known to be harmful to
your
health. Is
this
the same gubment that is supposed to be promoting
the
general
welfare
of it's citizens?


Does tobacco and alcohol figure into your pursuit
of
happiness?

Weird question Bert.


Why is it a weird question? The government is
interfering
in
your
pursuit of happiness.

Yes, but alcahol and tobacco aren't involved.


Why are you against other people pursuing happiness?

How did you ever come up with that notion?


Read through the message above. We separated from the limey
*******s to
enable our unencumbered pursuit of happiness.

One last time Bert. Alcahol and tobacco are not factors in my
persuit
of happiness. If they are key to your or others persuit of
happiness,
it's not my concern. Have Harry parse it out for you if you are
having trouble understanding. Now leave me alone on the subject,
please.


You always have the option to stop responding to my posts. If you
wish
to stop pursuing the issue the you can stop this whole thing by
leaving
me alone.

You got it. Peace and happiness to you
