HEALTH IS WEALTH.
Smoking should be banned.
1.) Smoking causes serious ailments like cancer. 2.) Smoking affects lungs, heart, kidney, etc. 3.) It is a fatal for one to smoking as it reduces the lifespan of a human being. 4.) It is also dangerous for passive smokers. 5.) Unknowingly huge amount of money is spent on this. 6.) Family members have to spend the time with a children by visiting the cancer centre to show how the people affected by a diseases and struggling for the life, while spending the time unnecessarily in cinemas, beaches, and shopping, etc.
I would love to discuss on this topic as I have done a lot of research on smoking and conference about it. I accept the fact that smoking kills people and also those are alive are in intense bad situation but a complete ban on smoking is not the solution of this intense problem. Tobacco cultivation is the earning of more than 527 thousands of people living in Indonesia. And believe me this is a very large number and it's import export is also a major source of bussiness of many industrialist. Pure form of tobacco if taken in limited amount is good for health so we can reduce the consumption of cigarettes is following ways.
1. Increasing the price of cigarettes so that middle class people cann't think of having it and also it would discourage the upper class people.
2. A complete ban on further establishment of tobacco industries.
3. Reducing the price of electronic so that addicted people can slowly reduce their habit.
I agree excessive smoking is injurious to health. It leads to pollution of environment. But complete banning of smoking is not pratical. There are many families dependant on cultivation of tobacco, manufacturing, the pipes, etc. We have to think about those families too. Complete banning of smoking brings thousands of families on road. So solution should be such that it balances both the sitiuations.
A very contentious but simultaneously a very interesting topic to discuss about it. A common saying "Health is Wealth" itself answers this question. Although it is very factual that tobacco companies is a source of livelihood to millions of people and also signifacantly contributes to Indonesia's GDP. But more important is the fact that it's consumption is fatal leading to Cancer having no proper treatment throughout the world. If Government encourages a revolutionary development of non tobacco companies such that people can have alternative employment options then its production and consumption can definitely come to an end. In all a single tear is more precious than thousands and crores of wealth which people leave behind them.
I'm qualified to speak about smoking. I don't smoke anymore. Do not waste time and money trying to quit with Nicotine patches. They fail in 95% of cases. We must learn from history. Banning or prohibition never works, it just creates crime and black markets. Alcohol was banned in USA in the 1920s. That lead to the birth of the Mafia, still a problem today. For the first time in history. We have a tool which will easily allow people to stop smoking. It is called the electronic cigarette. So you can get your nicotine ( aharmless drug) without the smoke that Governments want to ban them because it causes loss of tobacco tax. The nicotine isb a cigarettes comes from tobacco, so there is still money for tobacco farming. Nicotine in a pure form is no more harmful than Coffe.
Smoking is a practice in which a substance, most commonly tobacco, is burned and the smoke is tasted or inhaled. The most common method of smoking today is through cigarettes. Just as every coin has two sides same is with this case. Like if it is said that smoking should be completely banned then there are many who oppose it.
Arguments against banning smoking:
1. Smokers feel that it acts as stress burst to them. 2. Cultivators feel that earn their livelihood from this. 3. Government says that it contributes a lot in foreign currency. 4. Industrialist feel that it is a product with high scales of profit. 5. Some feel that ot makes them strong enough to fight various diseases.
But according to my view:
1. It is not the only way to burst stress. 2. There are many other occupation through which livelihood could be earned. 3. That currency is of no use which take away lives of many. 4. These products could only mint profits only in the short run. 5. It is helpful only if taken like a medicine that too only for few otherwise it causes no good rather it carries many lives along with it.
Smoking is injurious to health. This tag is on every cigar packet. But no one understand that one. People who smoking not only they suffered but also suffered the surrounding people.
I would suggest that smoking can never be quit by anyone who is a smoker. One suggestion I would like to give is government should take efforts to put ban on deadliest cigarettes which gives satisfaction a puff but contains 0% tobacco and thus one day our country will be pollution free and cancer free through tobacco.
Everyone knows that "Smoking Is Injurious To Health". Instead of that we can see every second person on road, in auto, in buses is smoking. That is harmful for the peoples which are not smoker but in contact of that smoke. This may cause disease like cancer, breathing issues, etc. Every year many people die with cancer and lung disease.
Cause: 1). Government also know that "Smoking Is Injurious To Health" but till now smoking not banned because corrupted people government take profit from this bussiness.
Solution: 1). We should aware everyone who smokes in our surroundings. 2). Government should ban smoking completely because allow people to smoke is like allow them to take poison. 3). If smoking banned, people didn't get cigarettes and tobacco products and this can be the biggest success in this case.
We all know that smoking is injurious to health. It's mentioned in the packets itself. Even if we smoke its only because they are not aware about its harmful impacts. The person who smoke not only trying to committing the suicede gradually but also they involved in murder with the smoke expelling to outside. So I have some points to save my colleagues those who smoke. 1). Making a clean awareness about bad effects. 2). Providing strict rules against smoking. 3). Giving them a chance to see those who are suffering with harmful impacts of smoking. 4). Family members also should have great involvement for giving awarness (if the parents are smokers them try to avoid smoking in front of them). 5). Moreover make ourself as keen alert because its our life we have to enjoy many things so we have to live more years. If we get problems our family members also going to suffer. Quit smoking save family our country. Making our country pollution free.
But how about those poor people who earn their daily wages from the cigarette industry. If a smoker want to have a cigarette then he will try to have it in any way either by right means or wrong means. And how about those people who depend on this industries for their livelihood. Nevertheless it should not cause a loss for the society. Its qualities should be used for good use like its a good pesticide (tobacco decoction) this cultivation is income for many families in countries like India or biofarm communities.
I believe banning smoking is much required step. Someone has mentioned above that banning smoking will effect those employed in cigarette manufacturing units, etc. I agree that it is a matter of concern but we have to bear a few stings in order to work towards a healthy society. It's in a way, choosing between umployment and cancer! I am sure everybody will prefer the former.
Moreover it's not really choosing unemployment as the government can do something for those who get directly effected by this ban ( of course if it wishes to). Banning smoking can not have worse effects than smoking already has. It may be difficult to be done but definitely worth it.
Friend all around the world... I concede that smoking is bad maybe even horrible. And I slightly support the abolishment of smoking today. We need to think realistically and logically. When we ban something we cann't expect the best case scenario. Our performance is the best thing in surveillance... As conclusion, there are three thing; The practicality of abolishment, the inability to regulate, and the burden of implementing that rule.
