The Swiss government pays for it's citizens' healthcare, which is likely cheaper than damages paid in international tribunal. Also, these laws are typically very popular, even amongst smokers. Pursuing these laws is a no brainer for the lawmakers.
Health insurance in Switzerland is mandatory, its NOT paid b the gov.
Beside that even if it would be paid by the gov, where do you think does the money comes from? Its still paid by the people.
Wow haha, that's some massive false information you have.
