Actually no. It was more of a protest thing.

I honestly don't care if anybody smokes - doesn't matter to me.

Drinking alcohol - well, that's a whole different story. :)

I do not think people should smoke. Nasty, ill habit. But that does not
stop me from investing in a stock. I look after the bottom line, not just
"Social Investing". As to Alcohol, dad was an alcoholic by the time he
died. Cancer, not alcohol got him. As long as it is used in moderation,
and does not hurt the family ignore it. Same should be done for most drugs.

Your support of any activity that helps tobacco companies impacts your
bottom line in a negative way, even if you think your investments in those
companies somehow serve you well.



It is a legal enterprise. Freedom of choice and the dividend is very good.

Yes, well, you apparently don't get it, and I'm not referring to "social
investing." Your support of cigarette companies helps maintain a FINANCIAL
burden against all of society, public and private, one that costs ALL
Americans, directly and indirectly tens of billions of dollars each year
in medical insurance premiums, uninsured costs that must be recovered
somehow, lost work and productivity because of illness, and so forth and
so on, ad infinitum.


The taxes on tobacco take in a lot more than is ever spent on health care
for the smokers. Tobacco as well as other "Sin taxes" have become a cash
cow for governments.

Good lord. I joke from time to time about the rationalizations of the
righties, and here you are, providing an example.



You are still a stupid, pompous idiot. Mother government knows best.
Describes you and the crud that have taken over the Democratic party.

Good lord, Harry. I know it doesn't work that way down there, but do
you really think we could afford our health care system up here in
Canada without tobacco money?

True, with privatized medicine, you 'merikens are getting ripped off,
big time. At least when I plunk down $10 for a pack of smokes I know
I'm helping pay for that Cancer Treatment Centre on the other side of town.

One idea might be for the US govt to double taxes on alcohol, tobacco,
firearms/ammunition and gasoline.
The windfall might go a long way to balancing the books. It's
irresponsible to keep spending more than you bring in year after year.

We need to break you of that habit. This past Christmas was my fourth year
of not smoking. In fact, here are my stats:

This is to CERTIFY that:

JOHN L. HERRING

Has neither smoked nor puffed a single cigarette for: Four years, one
month, two weeks, six days, 16 hours, 19 minutes and 21 seconds. This means
he has not lit 75633 cigarettes, and has saved $11,345.10. The additional
time he has to spend his daughters' inheritance is about: 37 weeks, 3 days,
14 hours, and 45 minutes.

Don't you love it?

That's already been done about four times for cigarettes.
