If they were worried about cigarettes they would do something about it. Keeping marijuana and probably even more important hemp illegal is because of capitalism. Textile companies, oil companies, and corrupt politicians and many more are bankrolling prohibition without any regard for what the masses of our country want. Yes our politics are always catching up to where we really are as a country but this is about the money. Not health, not your kids having easy access to drugs none of that. Someone wearing a very nice suit and tie lying to your face on t.v. is laughing all the way to the bank.
