but still should be monitored for something other than tax monies, but Nicotine has nothing but harmful ingredients, a good many of them carcinogenic. It has ingred. that were never tested to be smoked instead of ingested. Smokers and non-smokers alike should be appalled that a deadly product with an addictive drug is in reach of young and old alike. Does anyone feel offended that our government and the tobacco industry didn't find John Q. Public special enough to insist there be inserts naming every ingredient and the effect it could cause like is done with every other drug, allergy e presciption or over-the counter, especially when they know it's a deadly product? It is made accessable and taxed. It's as if they are saying "Here, we will help you kill yourself" and "Oh by the way, we are going to make sure we make big money off of your misery and demise.

Alcohol and tobacco are vices of evil because these destroy the health of people. Thus, there must be proper labels on their packing to warn people about the effects of taking its ingredients. Nice to call the manufacturers as criminals for murdering thousands of users.

There is some voluntary labelling already. Unfortunately, let us be honest I personally do not believe the tobacco labelling has stopped anyone from either starting or continuing to smoke. I once had a lecture as a student from the head of the West of Scotland Health Education Department. Perhaps coincidentally soon afterwards he resigned. He told us he didn't believe health education worked. I think that was an extreme point of view, (particularly considering the job he was doing at the time!) but I guess we knew basically where he was coming from.
