    Retailers across New York City are grappling with the first of many new laws designed to make it harder for residents to buy cigarettes, in hopes of driving down smoking rates.http://on.wsj.com/2ob7frZ

        "Legalize pot" then ban smoking tobacco. Genius! Next they will ban booze and legalize heroin.

        Drive by any highschool at dismissal time. Lots of kids under 21 smoking. If you have to be 21 to buy cigarettes, why aren't those giving kids cigarettes punished. Fine the parents $1000 when their child smokes! That may help!

        Why not work on improving lives so people don't need to suck on a cigarette just to get through tough days - there's enough stress already without do-gooders trying to make it harder to cope. Here's a thought - transform wagging fingers into helping hands.
