I swear if they bust the one near me again then i will grow and sell it myself. God dam its like $100 for a pouch of cheap shit. I remember thinking how dumb they were when i was in school learning about the prohibition.
As much as I think tobacco and nicotine are really stupid drugs (very addictive with the most boring mind altering effects one ever did see).
I support you doing that because at least people could “shop local” with you and not support mega corps or other large cartels.
The prohibition though, in my opinion, is sound.
There’s a reason why smoking is being banned in more and more locations: it stinks, and smoked as tobacco, definitely causes cancer - which the community also has to bear the cost of in medical expenses and familial/fraternal trauma.
Understandably, alcohol and other drugs also have bad side effects, and there’s an argument to be made about whether is appropriate to control that also - but heck, at least the mind altering effects are actually fun, and it’s not chemically addictive.
Basically. Smoking sucks, and I wish people didn’t do it, sorry bud.
Dam you go and hit me with the winds of change argument. Tbh it is hard to counter all the downsides of smoking so i wont bother
