the tobacco industry is one of the foundation stones of america, and its influence is absolutely massive. the only way obama got this to pass is because of the small numbers you guys have stated,... ie the companies wont lose any sleep over it.

but at the same time obama looks like he is doing something.

the question is, now that the tobacco companies have given him a deal, what is the price going to be?

oh and shisha was studied by some egyptian doctors and one head was found to contain the equivalent tar content of 200 cigarettes despite having less tobacco. but then again egypt has a big ciggie industry too so,....
