>>I have nothing against smoking or smokers IF 1) they pay for their own lung cancer treatments<< Sounds reasonable. Of course, all fat people will have to pay for their diabetes treatment. All meat eaters for their heart disease. All homos for their AIDS. Oops, just lost all the democrats.
Ever think about the number of people that will be put out of work if they stop the smoking industry? The farmers, processors,truck drivers, corner stores, ? How about the taxes the government makes, how are you going to replace that? I smoke 5 cigs a day. seadog
