I personally can't understand why any tobacco products are still legal or that the tobacco companies hide behind the grandfather thing, or that the FDA is so toothless that they can't declare it a "drug delivery system" and regulate it. Or that the blackmarket that will created by assessing a tax of 13 cents/cigarette will fund terrorists. Or that in Europe and foreign countries people smoke like chimneys.
