  • I didn't say anything abt the first purchase so unsure how this is relevant

    Edit: excerpt

    Silk Road proved the market for secure anonymous transactions based on blockchain ledgers, and the viability of cryptocurrency in general. Before the Silk Road marketplace, Bitcoin was mainly a novelty, with the first Bitcoin transaction famously being 10,000 BTC for 2 pizzas. Shortly after the Silk Road darknet market took off, Bitcoin reached $266 per coin, and the Silk Road marketplace became a $200 million operation.

  • In a way it sorta did. Not directly obviously but if you look at the history of bitcoin, its first truly viable use was darknet markets. After getting established as the currency there, it proved it could work and banks n all started buying it, so it was the weed that did it in a way

  • Tax smokers more and use that money to pay for it it also works as a passive deterrent to stop smoking.

    Edit: looking up the numbers it seems they could already pay for any nhs costs that appear solely from the taxes on tobacco so thats not an issue your getting mad at nothing idk what to say except live and let live

  • I feel like cigs on prescription is a fast way to get an oxy-like black market. You'd have people faking prescriptions to sell those cigs most likely to people who smoke more than the doctor wants them to or js children. Denmark is an example of a country which banned disposables yet a lot of teens still vape there they js buy em from dealers instead of stores thus increasing the danger for them

  • So ud genuinely rather non smokers die than let smokers get medical care? I feel like I have to be reading this wrong thats a bit psychopathic to admit that once someones smokes u actively dislike them so much ud be okay w collateral damage to prevent them getting medical care

  • I suppose i wouldnt oppose a ban like that in theory, but because doctors rnt omniscient, in practice, you'd end up with either, smokers not being treated for illnesses completely unrelated to their smoking, or non smokers not being treated because doctors think its related to smoking. I mean how could u tell for 100% certain someone is a smoker, I can bet theres smokers out there w still perfectly white teeth etc and non smokers whos lungs r black from car exhausts. Is it really worth letting a non smoker die js because you dont wanna pay for the smoker too? Its hardly like people r gonna be honest abt smoking when they won't get free healthcare for it

  • But it didnt and I'm glad because we shouldnt let people be racist. What's your point here? R u js pulling a "what if some things were worse" cause they are, racism is far from the worst thing u can do today. I'm taking a guess and saying they probs didnt murder anyone as a teen. now I'd hope u could agree that is a step too far that being a dumb kid doesnt justify same deal w racism

  • First off source for GMO tomato? Still havent given one that article had no mention of it 2nd why is it a bad thing if not every use of GMOs involves making food better? uve mentioned one example I can name one in the opposite direction, so what it seems is, theyre used for both and I'm wondering why thats a bad thing? Is painting bad unless painting something with functional use like heat dissipating paint onto something that needs it dissipated or is it okay to paint for both artistic and functional purposes

  • Thats not freedom? That concept in practice would be. I can work, if I do then I'll have money. However, if I dont work, I die from lack of money. The way I'd see freedom is, u can work or not and eitherway u dont die. Yk your free to choose what you want or in this case free to make the inputs desire
