I don't dispute that.
However, it is not a drug that induces a near complete loss of mental faculty such as crack. Furthermore, the physical withdrawal symptoms of nicotine are extremely short-lived, unlike most drugs medically/legally considered narcotics.

Crack is like $2.00 for a few rocks and as I understand it the high lasts a long time. Can't get much cheaper than that for the high they receive from it.

Exactly.

I am a smoker and even I think your statement is wrong. Nicotine is an alkaloid which is highly addictive and acts as a stimulant in mammals.

Erm, narcotics, medically speaking, are drugs that numb the senses. Nicotine is NOT a narcotic.
Besides, whats your point? That nicotine is as bad as crack?
