Subject: RE: BS: Make tobacco illegal?
Everything is a trade off.
The attempts to ban stuff has a track record that should be taken seriously.
For example, the 18th amendment had significant negative and hopefully unintended consequences.
We just create a different set of problems.
The practical effects of criminalizing smokers would probably be comparable.
