This is my point exactly.
Cigarettes smoking is clearly dangerous to your health. But the government still allows it to be sold. Why? Cause they get a big piece of the pie $$$. That's why they don't ban the sales. But they quickly banned the sales of the vapor cigarettes (e-cigarettes) in convenience stores which is where much of cigarette sales occur.
But wait, let's prey on more human weakness and make money off other addictions
Alcohol
Gambling
Gasoline
Prescription drugs
What's next? Recreational Drugs? Hard drugs?
Pure hypocrisy. Sickening, really.
