  • Revenues from cigarette taxes fund S-Chip-The state children's health insurance program. If anything, common sense would tell you the feds would want more smokers to fund health care for children. But, we have dumb liberal un-elected bureaucrats who are more concerned with trying to tell people how to live and think.

  • SO NOW THAT THIS MAY CURB CIGARETTE SMOKERS, WILL THIS MEAN MARIJUANA WILL FINALLY BE LEGALIZED IN ALL OF THE U.S. (TAX FREE), CUZ AFTER TOBACCO, WHAT OTHER CHOICE IS LEFT, BUT TO DECRIMINALIZE N FREE MARY JANE?.......RIGHT?

  • this is a great but stupid idea!

  • @JosephLoegering That's not even mentioning what they put in our water.

  • @deeppurple28 They should ban bicycles cause approximately 700 people die in bicycle accidents each year. They should ban swimming and bath tubs because approximately 10 people die every day because of drowning. They should ban cars because over 40,000 people die each year in auto accidents just in the USA. Fact is dieing is a part of life and no one gets out of life alive.....

  • Bout god damn time they start showing the truth on something for a change

  • The FDA will not take any complaints that are accurate on how much harm Beta-Glucan and other Inert Ingredient in Medications and Food Supplements cause, and the Medical Community removes from our Medical Records Tests that show the harm done. so that they can keep systematically overdosing and eliminating whoever they way using the Medical Community the same way Nazi Germany did. That is why they will not get me and others our Medical Records or Treatment that we need tinyurlDOTcom/3wob3rq

  • That's reality folks .. wish they would do this to all products, now that would be interesting. Too bad corporations and telling the truth to consumers goes against capitalism I guess O_o

  • They should criminalize that disgusting garbage that Kills Hundreds of thousands of people a year! Fucking Hypocritical Laws!
