They're right up there. Yet faced with the evidence of their tactics and agenda the resident fans of the nanny state will do little more than look down while they mumble under their breath and kick at the dirt.
They're also the ones behind this retarded smoking ban here in Jersey which has decimated the ber business of the restaurant I work in on the weekends. It was so depressing to hear all of these New Jersey jackasses commenting on how great the ban was when they were walking in.
Exactly!! Big Pharm wants everyone to quit smoking or at least try so we will spend our money on all their quit smoking junk. I priced a box of Nicorette gum at $49.95!!
There are more smoking FReepers in here then total anti's such as yourself, thank God!
Without a doubt! The following Robert Wood Johnson map is outdated. Since more of us have found out about them, they pulled the map from their site. But the blue states are the ones in the pocket of the RWJ Foundation.
The more the states ban, restrict, control and raise taxes on smokers, the bigger the grant money that the RWJF piles upon the state.
What with all the money states need, they are cutting off the heads of the smokers for blood money to also help balance state budgets. Sickening, yes?
God, I hope I had a hand in that!
You and me both. I have a whole page devoted to this putrid group! I found out about them several years ago.
That's just not good enough for the busy-bodies and do-gooders. Life is always better for them when they're running other people's lives.
