They do it for coal-burning power plants. So how about something for what many consider to be a walking smokestack — the cigarette smoker?

Are you sure this isn’t already in the healthcare bill? Has anyone actually read the entire thing?
Well, I'm qualified to teach the course, if that helps .................................................................................... FRegards
You can't.
There is no logic when it comes to liberals.
The term *liberal logic* would be the epitome of an oxymoron.
Liberals hate corporations
Notice, Liberals aren’t for legalization of pot instead they are for decriminalization. There is a significant difference.
If pot were legal, companies like Philip Morris etc can make their own pot brands and make billions, however if pot was just decriminalized, Liberals believe companies wouldn’t get involved and it would stay just small time growers.

Ha! I’m sure you have the references to back that up.. LOL
Why is it, when you hear something this astonishingly stupid, you can always say with a high degree of confidence “Some college professor thought it up.”
It’s a more sure thing than knowing a politician will lie at the drop of a hat or a reporter will never get it right when talking about firearms.
So all the potheads who dream of ‘decriminalization’ of weed will be rudely surprised by the fact that they join tobacco smokers in possessing a legal product they cannot enjoy at home or in public? They can carry it, but not light it up. Guess there’s always brownies, but wanna bet that smoking marijuana won’t be the pollutant( politically) that tobacco is?
If they really believe its so horrible, and kills the user and everyone around them, gubmints around the world should just ban the product already.
This nonsense passed the silly stage years ago.
