This is a question B3TA fixes the world

Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

Where to start?
Smoking back in pubs, NOW!
No one to earn more than £50K per year, there's no need for your greed.
Corporations to actually pay their taxes so the rest of don't have to.
Buses to have automatic right of way at all times.
Marmite on prescription. (Actually no, that would cost more!)
The Labour party to learn what labour really means.
Fags to be taxed like they are abroad, ie: not insanely.
Less bean-counters, more teachers/nurses/policemen/etc.
Humorous knob gag.
Cats to live forever.
Bankers responsible for current stupidity to be publicly hung.
Ditto politicians.

Oh, I give up, there's too many...

So you
need to arrange for houses in London to cost £100k.

50 grand isn't anything to write home about.

Sounds like your main beef is with the restrictions being placed on your filthy habit.

Banning smoking in pubs is one of the very few times the government actually got something right.

Last weekend
I had my first experience of a club with a smoking room. The rest of the club was pretty much black with neon lighting and pastel tables (vaguely reminiscent of that bar in Lost in Translation) but the smoking room had bright black-and-white checkerboard walls and extractor fans on full blast, and was packed with people. So packed, in fact, that a bunch of about fifteen people decided to stand chatting with their mates in the doorway, leaving the door wide open and filling the bar area with smoke. Nice idea, but fails to take account of the inherent human cuntage factor in the execution.

As a smoker I agree with this.
I don't mind nipping out for a fag, it actually saves me money as I'm not lighting one up after the other.

I do get annoyed when there isn't a proper smoking area, but understand that in many pubs cases it's impractical to have one, i.e. if it's a pub on a busy high street. in these cases I will try to find a reasonably quiet spot and not stand right in the door.

I wouldn't have been able to quit if it was still legal in pubs.
No way.

£50k a year?
You have no idea how much it costs to run a boat do you?

Croissant are not cheap either.

HOMOPHOBE!
you want to tax homosexuals - wake up to your suppression.

Most of what you propose I suspect is because you don't earn as much as you feel you are entitled to. And smoking in pubs, why, because you smoke and you don't care about anyone else. Childish and egotistical.

Oh right, so you're an idiot then.

Smoking back in pubs??? Nah, it should just be banned!!!

Bus stops should be fitted with sensiteve smoke alarms linked to high powered sprinklers! Anyone lighting up gets squirted!

Just a whiff of smoke gets me reaching for my inhaler.
