Smoking's been deamed an unacceptable social behavior due to health implications. I respect that. I rarely smoked in a group or room because of 2nd hand smoke and I sure as hell wouldn't mind walking outside to smoke if a ban is in place ...if I still smoked. What gets me is when they decide to revoke our right to make that decision on our own. Not only are we being brainwashed by commercials, ads and such but they're making them so costly with taxes that it's virtually imposible to maintain your drinking habits along side your smoking ones (lol). They, the govt., are afraid of the corporational structure they've set up coming down on them if they completely outlaw cigarettes and they're afraid of the illegal market and scandle that will result due to banning. So they decide to subconciously filter them out of society just like they're subconciously allowing companies to subconciously affect our subconcious in ways only a subway or chevy commercial subconciously could. And they're winning. That annoys me because everybody's a sheep and we're wasting our lives so that the U.S. of Stinking Eh can get more oil.
