Some people light up in defiance to the SOCIAL ENGINEERING policies pushed by liberals and so called "small government" (except when bigger suits us!) conservatives.
Most of us also are against extra taxes, except, once again, the so-called small government conservatives.
I am ALSO against more taxes and social engineering but there is such a think as cutting off your nose to spite your face and smoking to thumb your nose at liberals falls into that category.
Maybe I am a bit unreasonable about this issue since several people close to me have died of lung cancer.
Nothing to do with the fact that they SMOKED,however!(Sarcasm intended).
