For those who favor banning cigarettes, I don't smoke, hate smoke, but people are hooked and should be allowed to smoke. The states make a killing off cigarette taxes. I don't smoke, so I'm happy to see others paying taxes for me. I bought Philip Morris stock because it almost always gone up and pays a great dividend. So, don't smoke, just profit off those who do.

A New Cigarette Hazard: ‘Third-Hand Smoke’


By RONI CARYN RABIN
Published: January 2, 2009

Parents who smoke often open a window or turn on a fan to clear the air for their children, but experts now have identified a related threat to children’s health that isn’t as easy to get rid of: third-hand smoke.

That’s the term being used to describe the invisible yet toxic brew of gases and particles clinging to smokers’ hair and clothing, not to mention cushions and carpeting, that lingers long after second-hand smoke has cleared from a room. The residue includes heavy metals, carcinogens and even radioactive materials that young children can get on their hands and ingest, especially if they’re crawling or playing on the floor.

Doctors from MassGeneral Hospital for Children in Boston coined the term “third-hand smokeâ€

My health insurance company posts stastics indicating that they pay 65% more in medical costs over the life time of a smoker or tobacco user than a non-user.
