I wish we could just literally get rid of it.
Keep selling it to anyone above the age when the new law comes out, til they die - and forbid sales to anyone under said age - aside from a few idiots who want to smoke so badly they buy blackmarket cigs - we could just erase them from our lives...

You guys don't think adults should be able to do what they want with their own bodies? Where do you draw the line with government banning of unwanted behavior? Sweet? Processed food, in general? Unhealthy sexual activity? Would mandatory exercise, on video, be a reasonable mandate from the rulers? In your opinions, of course.

One more step towards raising the age of adulthood and infantilising the adult population. One little step at a time. Next will be curphews up to 21 instead of 18. Then when everything is 21 to be an adult, they will bump the number up again. Boil that frog!

Does anyone get the feeling that anyone supporting the police state now is a paid NSA shill?
