Nothing to fear there. Narcotics is the life's blood of the democratic party.. Soon everything will be legalized, and every kid in town will be a hothead...
The bad thing for cigars is that they are still considered a luxury only affordable to the rich.
Sure the very best cigars are unaffordable to most people but that is true of most anything.
Single hand rolled cigars are still available for under $5. And most people only smoke at most 1 or 2 a day.
That puts cigars in the same price range a cigarettes in many states.
But perception is reality and cigars are a rich man’s vice.
Also notice that flavored cigars are the target of choice because it is the primary choice of the young/new cigar smoker today. And protecting the young is always their wedge when they are breaking in to a new area of regulation.
