Obesity VS Smokers.....what is your view?

Personally, I think that both issues should be addressed thoroughly by the US Government. I believe that smoking should really be banned, and have that ban be enforced strongly, because the consequences of smoking tobacco can be SO widespread. There's several horrible things that can happen like Lung Cancer obviously, as well as Oral Cancer, etc. However, obesity has just as severe an effect on the human body. It brings many disorders, mainly within the heart. I understand that the nicotine inside this tobacco is literally addicting, but it doesn't give somebody the right to just say "Hey, it's not my fault. It's addictive" but the thing is, anybody can quit, anytime. Similar to that, most obese people have eating disorders, therefore they are addicted to food. The US Health Department should take serious effort into helping every single food addict out there, as well as cigarette addicts. Both addictions bring such bad things into your life, but everybody should be treated the same. Just because people have addictions, doesn't mean they should be spoken down to. Both types of addicts should do something about their addiction, but should not be treated different from each other, as well as the rest of the people.
