If you make something that a sizable portion of the population wants illegal then you merely give criminal enterprise another business opportunity.

Also in the US (or most other nations for that matter) what gives the government the right to tell people what they can or can not do with/to their bodies if someone wants to smoke let them smoke I can understand the no smoking in places like a restaurant or similar public venue but at bars such a thing is a laugh.No smoking in here but feel free to give your self liver disease and liver cancer and to get so drunk that you forget what you did the next day or perhaps you try to drive yourself home and kill yourself and others in a car crash.I wonder why alcohol is legal over many other drugs booze does more harm to society than any other drug easily.But smoking is bad and so is eating unhealthy foods of course they want to keep you from doing that too.

I think the moment that governments start pushing this crap too far is the moment that the citizens of that government need to put a bullet in its head.
