look at all the responses on the various threads about smoking the last few days. an awful lot of freepers want to punish smokers...

I don't know about those, but as I quoted, all hell will break lose if cigarettes were illegal. How would the revenues be recouped?

liberal answer: there must an industry out there somewhere that we can rape and pillage...
conservative answer:the revenues do not need to be recouped -- live within your means.
