I think it's ridiculous that cigarettes aren't illegal, while other substances that are INCREDIBLY less harmful for you are illegal. The fact that we live in a society where it's LEGAL to manufacture a product that KILLS people and is one of hardest ADDICTIONS to quit is nothing short of lunacy. But hey, it makes corporations and the government lots of money, gotta love that capitalism!
Cigarettes should be illegal to manufacture, sell, and purchase IMHO. Tobacco, of course, should still be legal.
