Some people propose that smoking should be banned. Do you agree or disagree?
选项
答案
Smoking is a social problem we are trying to solve. Some people suggest that the government should ban smoking. Indeed, smoking is detrimental to people’s health and it violates the rights and freedom of nonsmokers. However, in my opinion, smoking should not be banned for the following reasons.
First of all, tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It contributes much to the government’s revenue. For example, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. If smoking is banned, there will be a great drop in the government’s income. In addition, more serious social problems will arise, such as unemployment, because tobacco industry employs a lot of workers.
Those who strongly approve of the ban lay too much emphasis on the rights of nonsmokers. They ignore smokers’ rights. Smoking is just a personal hobby and amusement. It is a kind of lifestyle. It is a stress reliever and can bring great pleasure to smokers. On the contrary, for smokers, nothing seems more difficult and painful than giving up the habit.
We must admit that smoking is harmful to people’s health. However, the harm that smoking brings to people’s health is exaggerated. As long as we smoke in moderation, it will not cause great harm to our body. Take Mr. Churchill as an example. He both smoked and enjoyed a long life.
To sum up, I do not think that smoking should be banned. The tobacco industry makes a large contribution to the government’s economy. Smoking also brings smokers many psychological benefits. Moreover, there is no evidence showing the direct link between smoking and any fatal diseases.
