by tobacco i mena ciggerates in general. I belive they should be illegal because they cause so much death even from second hand smoking. i know peolpe go nuts without there nicotine but they have gum and patches that will help. i want to know your opinions on this subject at hand. (wether or not it should be illegal and why)
your logic is very faulty... thats like saying 95% of the world's population is a drug dealer.. because anyone that sells cokes, aspirin, energy drinks, cigarettes, is a drug dealer..
I guess thats what I said, but I'm not saying they are
illegal
drug dealers. Now stop yelling at me, I said it on accident >.<!
Smoking does nothing but promote bad health...they should be totally illegal but there is one problem. there would be a small recession because the tobacco industry is huge (you should check out just how big it is) and so it's decline must be slow but sure. for this reason individual people are encouraged to stop one at a time because too many at once would be bad for the economy.
they should be illegal or taxed upto $10 so those people will just go broke and we could produce soy instead or corn instead of tobbaco tobbaco is a terrible thing it hs killed 2 members of my family -kyle-
I think they've already tried something like this years ago. It was called Prohibition and it spawned lots of illegal activity, not to mention death and corruption. For the same reasons, marijuana and other similarly long acting drugs that damage the user, should be legitimized. Look what the marijuana laws have done to our prison system, not to mention Mexico. The fact is that making something illegal doesn't stop its use, it merely makes it more expensive and open to criminal activity with the resultant damage thereby. Being practical means sometimes compromising between two unattractive realities. I think chosing the one with the lesser damage is the wiser choice. And besides, rather than having gangster make all the profits, it'd be better to have the money used for something that our elected representative may find more useful for society.
I think that they should drop the restrictions on smoking. I used to smoke, and It's quite inhumane to send us outside during the winter so we have to freeze. Besides, especially in restaurants and such, they always had a smoking and a non- smoking section. If it bugs you that much, drop a pair of balls and quit being a baby. EAT MY CANCER!!
I also believe that marijuana should be legal, but that's a debate for later
