The FDA is now classifying Nicotine as a drug. Neat huh? All of the Drug Warriors will get theirs when the Sugar tax hits. Welcome to the party, pal. The Calorie tax is going to hit every criminal out there that likes to eat. So there.
i believe some of the founders grew their own tobacco, so it would be fairly tough to enforce such a law and have it stand up in court.
if it were upheld, that would mean the founders would be found guilty today.
i’m fairly certain the judges today would back off from that
(hmmm... maybe asking whether or not the founders would be found guilty under a law is a good way to defeat it)
See my #82. You’ve hit on the link that I was trying to recall when writing it.
