Tobacco Kills/Skull&Bones/Dead Body to be on cig packs-Ban order in public places-But no ban on cultivation?

Tobacco deaths are more than all combined deaths, it is directly responsible for various forms of cancers, causes impotency, etc., etc. Still, cultivation of tobacco continues unabated, government itself prescribes annual growth rate of tobacco, cultivators even get support price from governments. It’s use in public places is banned but people smoke with impunity. 6th standard kids are becoming victims and MNCs/NGOs/tobacco manufacturers are not sincere in their Corporate Social Responsibilities.
It is a shame on the part of “two-timing” policy makers who are victims of tobacco lobbies. They make helmets compulsory but are not bothered about the all pervading killer tobacco.
Drinking water is not available in villages/remote areas but availability of tobacco products are ENSURED in all corners of the world.
When will we ever learn? Once U R hooked, U R hooked for life. U spend money to buy cancer and again spend money to get the cancer cured. Either way U R the looser.

You are correct, however, right or wrong, tobacco built this country. This, even several hundred years later, is hard to get away from. Abstinence is the best policy.

Lots of money made off of tobacco. Since there is a lot of money involved the powers that be will not take a stronger stance.
