In response to the politician’s claim that the new nationwide health-awareness campaign should be funded by increasing taxes on cigarettes, the smoker counters that regularly eating high-fat and high-cholesterol foods cause as many serious health problems as smoking. Moreover, the smoker states it would be unreasonable to force consumers of these foods to bear the burden of financing the campaign.
The smoker counters the position held by the politician. He does this by providing a counterexample. If consuming certain foods cause as many serious health problems as smoking, but it would be unreasonable for the consumers of these foods to bear the burden of financing the campaign, then it is likely equally unreasonable for smokers to bear the burden of financing the campaign.
