Profit tax to the government or local board will become the opportunity cost..no?
What about the consumer.. Wouldn't he use illegal methods to smoke cigarette because the addiction is far to over-whelming for some consumers?

Yes unemplyment in the Tobacco industry. It's a chain...It will result in employment in the primary sector which includes the tobacco plantations to the secondary which included manufacture....so overall, it's a loss for the economy as a whole...People lose jobs, less production and less taxes.
And consumers will try to look for other ways to smoke...might choose to smoke at home with family around...children at such homes are at high risk of acquiring the habit and smoking passively.
I'm a mistake - legalize abortion!:
Tell the smokers...
Death or SMoke?

Survey has found..Men find death to be much more appealing.
Almost 51 percent in Los Angeles told the survey that death only encourages them to smoke :P

Agreed. Guys who smoke in my class, well they say they don't care...smoking makes them feel relaxed and GOOOOD....so they might as well smoke their lungs to death.
Banning it in public areas won't really help chain smokers get over it.
