I am not looking for any sympathy it is not the growers responsability. People who choose to smoke have that right and those of you who don't have no dog in the fight. It would be like me telling you they should outlaw sugar. I am not suggesting that tobacco is good for anyone, but that is not the point. How about corn farmers for years they have sold their crops at nearly a break even price don't they deserve to make a profit either? It has nothing to do with what crop we raise we should be able to make a decent living feeding the world. Tobacco still controls a vast section of the economy lets look nearly all big food companies are owned by tobacco companies Kraft, Nabisco and so on. In recent years due to lawsuits they have removed their name from those companies to seperate holdings due to litigation. I agree that it is not good for you, but as long as it is legal and tobacco companies and the Gov't itself are raking in huge profits I think the farmers who do the back breaking work to raise it are entitled to make a profit. Furthermore I am a Army Ranger so you can't tell me about athletics I smoked all through boot camp,airbourne school, Ranger school and several others that few smokers or non smokers can take. At one time I could run marathons and the smoking didn't seem to bother me none. Anyhow it is legal and non smokers have no right to dictate to others about it one way or the other. This is a choice left up to the individual, and the farmers deserve to make a decent living whatever they grow whether it be tobacco,turnips,tulips,corn,cattle or daisies.
