Since smoking is not a right,
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Since smoking is a victimless crime, what measures/regulations are justified to compel the behavior of not smoking?
(This does not include smoking in public places/smoking on your children, since there are victims in those crimes, this is assuming you're smoking privately or with other smokers).
owning a gun is a victimless crime.
Correction: owning a gun is victimless action and a constitutionally protected individual right.
