> The idea is to ban smoking for people who never smoke while still allow already addicted people to smoke The idea seems to be about banning smoking based on age, not if they ever tried to smoke or not, which may seem like a minor distinction, but it's a vital one. I bet you most of the people who are addicted to smoking started smoking before the age limit (if there was one), not afterwards. It seems to me like smoking was decreasing by itself already (probably because of vaping if anything), and making it more illegal could counter that decrease.
