I dunno. Smoking seems to have no good side apart from a transient feeling of increased well being during each cigarette, while the health problems associated with it can be huge, even if you only smoke a little bit, and are entirely preventable. If they don't want the tax revenue, and their citizens don't go loopy, good on them. (I'm an ex-smoker as of 2 years ago, and have, as a doctor, worked on a lung cancer ward, where I saw 34 year old girls die of lung cancer, as well as many others of slightly more advanced age, but who's deaths were equally pointless).
As an addicted smoker, and I hate it, it costs me way too much money I could be spending on other things, and as "The Doc " says it ain't good for us. Nut surley those addicted in the country where the products have been banned will just set up a black market with those that are allowed tobacco products ?
