If more smokers switched to making their own cigs or Native brands, at least they wouldn't be giving politicians and anti orgs money anymore...since they would stop buying BT brands.
I agree tobacco should be illegal based on how anti this society is towards smoking. But if they make tobacco illegal, then you might see a Big Mac costing as much as 10 bucks, to make up for the fact the govt couldn't collect money off of smokers anymore.
I guess the only tobacco that WOULD be illegal are the big name brands...those are the brands the govt lives off of in terms of sales. Not Native brands or tobacco used to make your own. |
I know, right? My question is: what about the fast food industry or something? All of these health freaks bitch about smoking is bad for your health- I'd say eating all of this fast food is just as bad. I say next, we try and ban Burger King, Mcdonalds, Taco bell, etc. for making Americans fat and obese? First, we should tax the shit out of it to make people pay more though.
