That government should not give help subsidy for people how choose unhealthy lifestyle 

First of all, I’ll defin the motion. What is Unhealthy Lifestyle? Unhealthy Lifestyle is defined as a lifestyle where a person engages in activities that are known to be detrimental to one's health, such as smoking, not exercising regularly or enough. What is Subsidy? A subsidy is a benefit given by the government to groups or individuals usually in the form of a cash payment or tax reduction. What is Government? A group of people that governs a community or unit. It sets and administers public policy and exercises executive, political and sovereign power through customs, institutions, and laws within a state.

Now people around the world have so many bad habits like smoking, drugs, drinking alcohol, and many more.  It is so dangerous because they can be a bad example for people around the world and especially so dangerous for kids. So now, I agree that people have unhealthy lifestyle should not get a subsidy from the government. Because as I have told you before, they’re dangerous and now I’ll explain you from my points. 

) My first point is about smoking. It is so dangerous for kids and other people. The disadvantage for people who smoke or we call active smokers is they can be sick and most of them can die. Example: when people smoke too much they can get cancer and die. 

And for other people who are around the smokers or we call them passive smokers they inhale the smoke and it’s more dangerous than the active smokers. Why? Because when active smokers smoke, there is some filter that can save them, but when passive smokers inhale the smoke of people that smoking, there is no filter for helping them. But I remind you that those two activities are so dangerous for ourselves. 

) My second point is for those people that using drugs, they can go to the jail. All of the world including Indonesia has a rules that using drugs it so illegal.  The rules in Indonesia and it’s written in rules number 22 year 1997 says that produce, make grow, and especially use drugs is a crime that has so many disadvantages and so many dangers. 

) My third point is about drinking alcohol. It can make an accident. Example: After we drink it, of course we get drunk, uncontrolled, and many bad things can happen. The dangerous is when we are driving a car or a motorcycle, we can get crashed.  

My conclusion is unhealthy lifestyle are bad because there is no benefit and many disadvantages for people around including theirselves.  So why government has to give subsidy to those people that can danger themselves and people around them? So now, I believe that this statement should stand. Thank You
