Wow, that's quite a new perspective. Invoking Hitler to win your argument is the last refuge of someone who can't think of any other good arguments.

Hitler did not support smoking bans or road building, he was their instigator. He was a dictator and decided the policies in Germany.
He was an authoritarian who treated humans as pawns in his little game. He had no no respect for the lives of humans, and just saw them in pretty much the same light as a Farmer treats Cattle.
Many arguments have already been put forward and you do not appear to accept any of them, I am just pointing out the fact that Germany introduced the first Anti smoking legislation and 70 years later the German led EU are still pushing the same line.
