Drinking...there are studies on drinking that show that people can be harmful to others as well as causing themselves kidney, liver issues and other ill effects, There are some short sided reports that also suggest that "booze" may in fact trigger some types of cancers. The other problems is that it too can be addictive. People who drink large quantities and feel they can get behind the wheel of a car possibly killing others as well as themselves. Some teens who have gotten a hold of alcohol have died drinking and had succumbed to Alcohol poisoning. Alcohol could possible kill someone in one day as the drive or drink more than the body can handle and in some instances years
I would also suggest banning fast food, candy, and other snack foods that otherwise cause obesity and ill health effects, addicts of junk and fast food find themselves battling such illnesses as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure. This also costs and is an addiction, in some cases. The other problems with this trend is depression and self image. Where the person knows they are overweight but looses the war on fighting obesity because they simply cannot stop eating junk.
Now, we should all remember smoking causes health issues, that come up years later (in some cases). Lung illnesses, breathing problems, and cancer. I should point out that smoking, drinking, and unhealthy eating should be pursued in the same manner, Yet we are chasing smokers..
No one wants to give up their beer and chips, yet everyone wants smokers to giver up smoking. Odd that we play a game that isn't as PC as we all think..
