if its your business.. you can choose to sell or not sell whatever you want... its not like they can't walk down to albertsons and get it.
I think making these ridiculous laws against smoking in public places is the wrong approach... if you want to stamp out smoking.. make it illegal just like every other drug that is addictive and destructive... I think if you want to allow the freedom to smoke and kill yourself then you should allow the freedom to shoot up heroin and snort a line of coke in your house, just as how smoking bans are promoting smokers to do..
the laws aren't consistant or logical... you can't have it one way and fight the effects on one thing.. and then have it a totally differen way for something else..
boise I almost think thats where all this is headed. Big tobacco saw the writing on the wall and has been diversifying all along. I'm a smoker, I'm hooked, I know I shouldn't, but it's just been so frustrating to quit. 3rd times a champ I hear.
Had the laws been consistent and logical, no one in my family would be a smoker.
NY got wind of how much it was costing them in medical care, so they put a tax on ciggies $5.50 on sale when it used to be $2.75. I got the impression this was their incentive to get people to buy patches, until I discovered they applied the same taxes to those too because they had nicotene in them!!! hahahahahaa
(AND they proof you to buy them, just in case you're a 15 yr old trying to get off them)
Private business = Private Matter = Goverment stay out!
