And what age do they approve of choom?
And right now, half the so called ‘Right wing’ is cheering right along with the Dems.
Wrong call by Hawaii.
A better idea is to increase the tax on cigarettes. ECON 101. An increase in price will result in a decrease in demand.
18, 19, and 20-year-old Hawaiians need not worry. Everyone knows that it is real easy to produce a fake birth certificate in Hawaii.

Great economist Jenny Granholm agreed with your progressive scumbag ass and it led to higher taxes elsewhere to make up for the loss.
Or license.
Because it's important to create different classes of people; declare some classes to be pariahs; and tax the pariahs differently than the other classes.

Or maybe you just forgot the sarcasm tag?
Ban the product or leave it alone.
I’m sick of leftists and their incremental crap.
Probably just another case of Freeper liberalism. Happens alot lately. Since Romney in fact.
Now how about raising the age to vote back to 21.
People in California use too much water, we should tax it so high that they are more careful about how much they use.
People in Montana drive too far and use too much gas. We should raise the gas tax by $5 per gallon and start taxing them by the mile to make them stop.
People in bakeries don’t make enough cakes for gay people, we should use the power of government to force compliance or drive them out of business.

Right wing? Doesn’t exist in HI.
There is something so repugnant about increasing taxes. What business is it of politicians whether people smoke. I never have and never will. It’s none of my business if others choose to do so.
“People in Montana drive too far and use too much gas. We should raise the gas tax by $5 per gallon and start taxing them by the mile to make them stop.”
Several states currently exploring that very thing and tracked via GPS. Not 5 a gal YET, but give them time
Good to see you, BTW. It's been a while.

LOL. Grow government some more. It’s for the children, don’t cha know.
Actually all higher taxes do, is lead to a massive influx of bootleg cigarettes as proven time and time again in cities like NYC
