...and unite against their common enemy. Their common enemy is the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which funds organizations such as MADD and Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids (and created the latter). Their goal is to make everyone live like a Seventh-Day Adventist. They must be destroyed if America is to come to its senses.
All of these harmful substances need to be regulated and eventually quashed. You have to start with those where there is the most popular support, and that is drugs. Alcohol and tobacco can be regulated now, and quashed later.
It's just like with guns. We have to start with assault weapons, and later move on to the magnum, the 475 Limbaugh, etc.

Lemme guess, fifth DUI while on a suspended license.
Well, consider this, in decades past, the tobacco industry LIED to the public about the dangers of smoking and how addictive they are, they had doctors paid to claim they were not dangerous....and here we are in 2019, they can be bought any day of the week in any amount...but when it was discovered the pharma companies lied about the dangers of opioids, everyone goes berserk and they go nuts with punishing the industry for it...why did this not happen with tobacco? Gee I wonder!

Alcohol and tobacco are so ingrained in our culture that they cannot ban them. They have made smoking prohibitively costly and difficult to do in many places in this country.

Well, I just spoke with the RJ Reynolds rep on friday last week, RJ Reynolds is doing GREAT right now! Cigarettes are our #2 best selling product ( fuel was #1), and this was for the entire mid west region for our company (thats about 1800 stores!)

They could ban them but they will never do so because of a few reasons:
1. Lost tax revenue.
2. The "black market" will replace the regulated market.
3. Lost tax revenue.
4. Almost any politician that tried to do so would be voted out of office. Even if they weren't, they'd lose financing from lobbyists.
5. Lost tax revenue.
