@RadioPockyy by making them illegal it would create a psychological picture in a big number of children as well as grown up as a wrong thing to do, for example because mrijuana is illegal(atleast in Canada) the number of people who use it is much lower than it would be if it was legalized.

cigs are a big tax generator, and the more the gov raises taxes on cigs, the harder it is to ban them . bigger tax loss.

Now that the FDA regulates the we may be closer to a ban.
