It is ever so clear to realise that anti-smoking legislation like the smoking ban, tobacco plain packaging legislation and excessive taxation hikes are being dictated to those who have to follow them instead of being performed voluntarily under the consent of the members of society. The general characteristic of all punishable law with the exception of counter-smoking legislation has been that it is predefined by social interaction and testing and is agreed upon by society in advance of its institution and its enforcement takes place under social volition and consent.
However, counter-smoking legislation has not been preapproved by society or been voted upon with the consent of its members and depended on the state instead of depending on society to exist and is a matter of the exchange of punishment and its enforcement instead of applying reason with a logical consequence. In one word counter-smoking legislation like the smoking ban has been dictated to the public and to society by the state.
It is evident from our language that dictating is performed by those who are called dictators. It is no use pretending that we have democracy and trying to appraise the free and liberal time that we live in when at the same time enforceable instructions are being dictated to the population all at once, except at the same time of its practice, like what followed the Brexit referendum. And of course, when those instructions are being dictated this is done by dictators under the wider recognition of language, whether the dictator is the prime minister or the health minister, or even the person writing the law, not necessarily those asked to cast their vote on the legislation that the government proposed to them, because they have been used.
It is commonplace for dictators like anti-smoking legislation lawmakers and other government ministers to take advantage of the existence of the parliament to have it vote for legislation chosen by them, like the smoking ban or tobacco plain packaging, while writing irrelevant things onto the law such as dictating immediate instructions with no priority over their false enforcement and execution. Some of their worst feats are the alleged introduction of tobacco plain packaging and excessive taxation hikes as decisions performed by ministers and public smoking bans. Some of their worst expansions include vaping flavour bans and banning things instead of inventing them. Banning mentholated cigarettes instead of inventing them, banning vaping in Australia instead of inventing it which happened in nearby China in 2003, banning the sale of cigarettes in New Zealand instead of inventing them which happened in ancient times in the Americas and so on.
However, it is useful to remember that all those have been dictated onto and not decided upon by the rest, rather decided by the minimum requirement of one individual abusing their power over all the rest, and worst, turning the abuse of that power against those who have entrusted it with their vote, which is another notorious characteristic commonplace of dictators and dictatorships like the anti-smoking regime of London or the one situated in Australia.
