Conservatives & Libertarians believe people are Free to Smoke. Liberals believe smokers are a Source of Taxes.

There is no large political group so opposed to smoking as to ban it.

Except for the illegal drug smugglers. They are already making lots of money smuggling cigarettes into high tax states. If tobacco were banned altogether they would make more money than they are making off of marijuana and cocaine smuggling combined.
