Preventing children from being poisoned by their stupid parents is the reason government exists.

I agree with you up to a point, and that point is WHO is defining what is poisonous...some people would say having a Bible openly displayed in your home where children could see it is abuse. Be careful what you wish for.

Right. And some people would say that having heroin addicted parents should have their children taken away. It cuts both ways. As a democracy you have to fight, personally, for what's right. And wasting time and energy on what is so clearly a losing and wrong battle (smoking in cars with minors) endangers your ability to combat the scenario you describe.
