Failure to control our eating habits with the soda ban has necessitated a return to controlling smokers again, because that is more socially acceptable.

When I was a supervisor, one of my subordinates decided that sparking up inside the closet where the flammable fluids were kept was a good idea. Idiot. He's lucky nothing blew up on him.

I was being sarcastic.

I like # 1 - "Let companies bring that cash back to the U.S. at a much lower tax rate. It would help the economy and help companies grow, and the money would actually go to good use instead of slumming in the Cayman Islands."
