I know without a doubt that smoking is killing me a little at a time. The hold it has on me is unlike any other.

If the government truly had smoker's welfare in their minds, they'd be funding a silver bullet project akin to the moon shot to stop the addiction once and for all for those that want to quit but lack whatever it takes to do so.

You're right, no one should have personal responsibility, your admitted health problems from smoking are all the government's responsibility.

If the government KNOWS it to be killing you..then they they should outlaw smoking entirely. The State of Maine would lose that $1 tax on each pack of smokes.

Thanks for your input, holier-than-thou.

Your attack is personal and petty.

In your view, the government should stop research on everything that is sourced at human causation. You'd have to include genetic birth defects and diseases as well, right?

Your turn will come. We'll see what song you sing then.
