Should the gov't ban cigarette manufacturing?

its not possible because if you have self control we can stop the smoking habit.

ya dude you are absulutely rite....

I think....it is a person's choice what they do to their bodies...the govt. can ban smoking in certain areas to prevent smokers from hurting others with second hand smoke, but to ban their creation would not go over very well....the govt. controls society in so many ways already..I for one did not sign up into following their rules when i was born...why the hell should they dictate life so much?...but I guess that sort of branches off into another rant and or subject...but really stopping the manufactuereing would not be so great a move...if people want to poison themselves and enjoy then let them, not the govt's business.

no

If the gov. bans it it will save so many people money and lives but a lot of people cant deal with it and will do anything to get it back.

i think if all the person in the country giveup smoking , these companies will atomatically closed . so the thing which should be changed is ourself . its ur life man and u know smoking is dangerous to ur life , so u have to take care of this . govt and company, they did't play nay role in that . if ur not caring abt ur life then who will . if u have any other idea , plz let me know ??

I agree it is dangerous, so are so many other things, you can't ban everything, I think people will always find something that is bad for them to do and do it, so if you ban smoking they will just find something else to use.

No I don't think so, if people want to smoke they should be allowed to, freedom of choice must be kept, I am not a smoker but I still thnk people have the right to smoke if they want to.

how would government generate revenue if it banned cigerates lol :x it makes hunderead thoughands dollars tax which the government gets from the cigerate sales. if it banned it completly it would be its loss.. the main thing is governmet doesn't wants to ban cigerates.

They never will. They get way too much kick back in various ways from the manufacturers. As they say, never bite the hand that feeds you!

no the gov.should not ban ciggarettes,an im over 21 it should be up to me if to worry about my health not the gov.if anything should be ban is like xbox an play station an other how many people has been hurt an killed over xbox,an anyway the gov,could care less about anyone health.if they did the cost would not be this high were ppl cant afford insurance..i feel better now thanks

It should be the responsibility of the individuals to not to smoke rather than banning the manufactures..

no way man, those who don't want smoke don't it and those want to let them ,banning will only rise to black marketing and loss of revenue for government .

I think it is a money-maker for the government, so they will never ban it. They post the warning to cover their butts (no-pun intended). It may also help them "sleep better" they can think I know millions are dying from smoking, but we warned them...

Since poor diet causes just as much health problems as smoking does, should we also ban all high fat foods? Why don't we cut road deaths by fitting all cars with a speed limiter to 55mph? Why don't we ban dangerous and extreme sports, after all, they kill off quite a few people? Since violent imagery might set off one or two weirdos, let's ban all films that didn't get a U certificate, and any game with a rating that isn't 3+

it is a stupid thing

i think they must ban it,bcoz its becoming too difficult for others to live with it...

well i dun think it shud be banned but it shud be made more expensive so that only mature people can buy it not kids

No it should be banned.

The public would just rebel against it and still do it. Like when they tried to ban alchohol
