Big Government Busybodies: It's All About Smoking

I've been using this example with most people with whom I've discussed politics in the past year, so forgive me if you've heard it, but I felt like putting it out there for general consumption.

I don't smoke anything at all. It's bad for you health. But my general slide into libertarianism has a lot to do with the Big Government Busybodies of the right and left. And here is one way it can be illustrated very concisely:

The meddlers won't rest until nobody is ever allowed to smoke.

The busybodies of the left are bound and determined to keep anyone from ever smoking any tobacco. The busybodies of the right are determined that no one should ever smoke anything else.
