I've never smoked, never been tanked (I'll enjoy one beer & that's it), never been on a trip. Plenty of chances but it never appealed to me to cause myself stupid harm even though all my mates did. I grew up in inner Sydney, Surry Hills & Redfern, with every sin available to me too. Today I still can't understand why anyone does. But that's me.
Controlling/banning advertising of grog & fags isn't going to cut it when the predominant cultural thinking is to get tanked, smoke & get high. Change the culture & you'll achieve a better social out come. But as long as there's $$$ to be made too from people, there'll also be no will from "government" to change very much at all - hey, they take a cut from it too! Illicit drugs, acute lead poisoning is the only solution for these peddlers of death.
