167. when have I demonized smokers?
I watched someone I loved and admired as a child just die in misery from the stuff. let me repeat my point...smoking should be legal, it should be taxed, and it should be regulated..just like anything else in life! life isn't free, and neither is universal healthcare.

Now what is the point you're trying to make? should cigarettes be taxless, should the government just stop funding Medicare..if that is your point, then post it..debate over. But please don't start a debate, and then just leave me in the dark! :shrug:
