50th anniversary year of Star Trek .
Not as long as Star Trek, but in our country, there is a series of detective drama that lasted 30 years.
This year is 30th anniversary, and the final movie was shown.
Last month, anniversary concerts for this series of detective drama were held.
I went to one because I'm a fan of one of the singers who performed its theme song and several musicians took part in.
They performed music used in this drama series with motion pictures on screen in the background.
How young the hero detectives are! Clothing and position of female characters reflect the time.
One more thing I felt the change of time was smoking scenes
In the older series, the duo of hero detectives and other detectives and various people were smoking in patrol car, office, restaurants and bars, anywhere and everywhere, even in front of women and in public, which is impossible now
-I know, I know... " That was then. This is now. "
Do active smokers wish to return to that age?

Once I heard an opinion that movies and dramas and animes with smoking scenes should be labeled as harmful .
　Then, too many movies and dramas and animes would be labeled as harmful -so would be this series of detective drama ,
　　So I think this is unpractical.
Instead, I expect that smoking is more and more old-fashioned, so smoking scene itself will disappear from movies and dramas and animes sooner or later , though.
tobacco prices should be raised to 1,000 yen per box; about 2.5 times of the present price .
As I placed before, ignoring other sources of tax revenue, this is nothing but fire on the side of the river, so I leave to people involved;
No matter how they try to scrape up tobacco tax, it's irrelevant to try to rip off from me.
At the same time, I cannot deny the concern that if tobacco price soar too rapidly, new crimes and social problems can come up like illicit tobacco and different kinds of addiction .

People who have no intention to stop will try to cling on tobacco no matter what it takes, while hazard of tobacco is already widely verified.
If you are non-smokers or already stopped smoking, no need to read below.

・ Nicotine is not carcinogenesis ?
→ But nicotine is addictive, and it's general knowledge that tobacco contains various kinds of carcinogenesis such as tar.
・ While number of smokers is decreasing, lung cancer is increasing ?
→ It's true that lung cancer unrelated with smoking is increasing .
The main cause is said to be air pollution.
But that does not mean that smoking is harmless, and who needs more air pollution?
People who used to smoke might have fallen ill that they deserve later.
・ People who didn't start smoking are clever , which I read on a message board of news site?
→ Then ask yourself why you dabbled in smoking , while you have been warned billion times that how it causes numbers of illness and troubles many people around you.
・ Smoking is stylish ?
→ Giving bad feelings to people with smoke and smell, -in our language, uncomfortable feeling against someone is expressed as smoky
　Involving people around you in illness with secondhand smoking,
　　Committing act no better than bodily injury and arson ,
　　　Littering on street,
Do you regard such things are stylish? Are you happy with that?
・ Tobacco relieves stress ?
→ If the means to relieve stress cause illness, it's like putting the cart before the horse.
Especially ladies must be aware how smoking is bad for beauty as well as health .
・ Smokers pay tobacco tax and contribute to nation ?
→ This is right in a sense. They contribute to nation in many ways.
Let me share a new idea I had never had, which I found on a news site:

　Lifespan of smokers is about ten years shorter than non-smokers,
　　So the total medical cost they consume in their lifetime is not so different from non-smokers.
　　　Besides, they receive national pension for ten years shorter.

-Am I having comebacks for everything? Sorry.
