Political agenda,maybe,but financial agenda,definitely !!
It's all about money----by making smoking and smokers the greatest health threat on earth today they can be heavily taxed and the wimpy cigarette manufacturers can knuckle under to the law suits.
Money talks,and in this situation it is talking loudly.
I,as a smoker,wish they would ban them entirely. Dealing with the black market would be more pleasurable than dealing with the hypocrisy of the municipal and state governments.

Imagine how large our profits would be if cigarettes were illegal in the US!
I'd SURELY make a LOT more money smuggling Cigarettes than trying to make an "honest living!"
