Cigarette smoking hurts poor smokers (and rich ones, too) way more than the highest cigarette taxes ever will. When smokers develop emphysema or lung cancer, it hurts the smoker, his or her loved ones and society as a whole.

Anything or anyone that will legitimately help discourage addiction to smoking, whether government, family, friend, animal or vegetable should be applied. Helping any individual steer clear from a life of addiction that can lead to the horribly debilitating effects of emphysema or lung cancer is well worth the effort.
