Hmm, wouldn't cutting off subsidies pretty much wipe out tobacco growing immediately?

It would end American tobacco but Chinese and South American tobacco would take up the slack. The cost would probably go up 2 cents a pack.

Wouldn't the same all assault by the govt. on alcohol sales save more lives, prevent domestic violence, prevent vehicular homicides, reduce the risk of ............? You name it.

Alcohol consumption has killed more people, ruined more lives, destroyed more families, helped to contribute to spouse abuse, child abuse, and resulted in alcohol rage induced homicides than ten centuries of tobacco use will ever create.......

Unfortunately everybody (almost everybody) likes alcohol, tobacco users are the modern day Jews that need to be purged by the modern day nico-nazi's......

My anger grows!
