Interesting. US farmers who have for generations grown a legal crop are, in your opinion, in the same class as Afghanistans who grow Opium, a crop that is not legal there or anywhere, which means they are criminals.
Therefore, Afghan criminals = US farmers.
Using your logic, I guess Sugar Beet Farmers aren't much better? Or those that grow hops for beer, or those that grow grains that go into liquor? Or cattlemen that raise beef? And those that raise hogs?
You know 37% of Americans are obese, so those sugar beet farmers should be ashamed for growing that crop. Not to mention all the people with diabetes these days, drinking all that soda pop with corn syrup in it. We should just outlaw sugar and corn. And there are too many people dying from drinking alcohol. And too much beef and pork in your diet is bad for your heart.
I disagree with your assertation that growing tobacco is not something to be proud of. But you can look down your nose at those that do, and judge them as you wish. I was taught that judging others was a job for a much higher authority than you or I.
I don't grow tobacco, nor do I know anyone who does. But I'm not one to tell others what they should do, or what they should consume.
And your last sentence..."unless the goal is to render smokers dissatisfied and they subsequently quit". Who are you, or any person or government agency, to make that decision for anyone else? Your statements sound elitest and snobbish to me. Just my opinion, as yours is yours.
