"It should not be legal to market a product that dispenses an addictive drug in a way that leads to a high rate of disease and death."

Please provide evidence that tobacco "causes" or "leads to" a high rate of disease and death!

Please prove that tobacco is addictive!

Hint: You can't, it isn't either, and you are no better than the rest of the sheeple that beleive the so called "truth.com".

By the way, it is a "fact" that Republicans only care about the rich and all their oil buddies!

That's not really my primary point. If it's not addictive, that's fine.

My primary point is that we are currently in a condition where the government is both regulating and promoting tobacco. The result is a slow loss of the right to smoke and an increase in the government doing what governments love to do best, insinuating itself into areas which are none of the government's concern.

Since we are not ever going to go back to the days of unregulated tobacco, I maintain that it is best to kill this beast quickly before it does any more damage.
