Homeless advocates and public health officials are squaring off over a controversial Obama administration proposal to ban smoking in government-assisted housing projects.
The smoking ban has drawn praise from health officials who say it would spare non-smokers from the dangerous effects of secondhand smoke. But homeless advocates are enraged by the proposal, which they fear could force low-income residents who can’t kick the habit out of their homes.

B.Hussein Obama is all about POWER AND CONTROL...AS HIS THE GOALS OF Hillary CLINTON...
I'm sure he still has his habit...just hidden, like many records in his so called LOCK BOX~~~~!!!!!
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.

Ooops...This...Obama
The anti-smoking crusade has used phony “science” as a weapon of persecution.
In this case they have picked on poor people who live in public housing.
This is liberalism at is cruelest and most vicious—liberalism with the mask torn off and the raw evil exposed.
smoking is more prevalent among poor people
so, the solution seems easy enough - give smokers a separate building - it will probably be the safer one
No, no...not effective until 1/21/17.
Do as I say...not as i do.
I would love to be President for a day and undo all his bullsh*t.
100%
I'm not so sure. Fedgov has zero constitutional authority to provide housing for people, so I'm inclined to think it has no authority to set rules for personal behavior.
Let the residents be governed by state law, like everyone else.
GDMF'in control freaks...always hated them, always resisted them, always will--until the day I die!
Second hand smoke will get the kids hooked on nicotine. I’ve seen it when I was traveling with several families to my home planet. Earth is a pretty cool place. It has great things you can smoke. /sarc {<;)>
Generally speaking when it comes to tobacco use and other use of recreational drugs I am a libertarian.
However in this case I side with the premise that ‘he who pays the piper calls the tune’.
In other words if you are living at the expense of the government, the government can put whatever restrictions on that living as they see fit.
If those restrictions should encourage you to move out that is of course your prerogative.
If you wish to live your life as you see fit then make your way on your own efforts.
Good points.
The Government of today can give and it can take away.
Great — this will assure that the people mowing each other down in Chicago’s gang-infested housing projects — the shootouts Obama ignores — don’t have a cancer stick in their mouth as they mow down women and children.
Progress!
Well I know the government takes away more than 50% of my income.
Yep.
