Should cigarettes be illegal? Yes, cigarettes should be illegal. They would be illegal except for the fact that the government, state and federal, makes so much money off taxing them. Any other substance, plant, etc., that causes as much physical harm as tobacco does not, and will not, get FDA approval. Imagine, if you will, if tobacco products were just discovered today and the growers wanted to get approval to market it. There is no way that would happen. Tobacco has no redeeming qualities, at least none that I am aware of. So I say that cigarettes should be illegal.

Cigarettes should be illegal because they the effects of smoking are dangerous. They take 443,000 lives of people every year in United States, alone. Then over the whole world, there are over millions of deaths in a year. Many states and restaurants have already started to try to control the issue. Some states have a law that says people can only smoke outdoors and many restaurants have special seating areas for smokers. While this does help it doesn't eliminate the problem completely. Also smoking also leads to alcohol use. It leads to it because both are intoxicants which are harmful to life and your body. Then alcohol use leads to many accidents and deaths.

Also, cigarettes should be illegal because there are many theories and speculation about using cigarettes. The industry of tobacco is not doing well, because there are many other companies that worked hard to beat this company. For example, there is a company that many electronic cigarettes. You blow in the cigarette and then smoke comes out. There is also another one that is a candy cigarette. It has a shape of it but instead of smoke, sugar that you can eat comes out. Also, there is a new injection that is still being tested in labs that clean out your lungs. My source here is healthcare magazines. Also, there are many foreign countries problems along with the cigarettes. For example, the country who import the cigarettes to us, may add a certain deadly chemical that is very harmful to the body.

Cigarettes should be illegal because they are a grave public hazard. There are many health care risks with smoking. Cigarettes contain more than 4000 chemical compounds and at least 400 toxic substances. When you inhale, a cigarette burns at 700°C at the tip and around 60°C in the core. This heat breaks down the tobacco to produce various toxins. As a cigarette burns, the residues are concentrated towards the butt. The products that are most damaging are: tar, a carcinogen (substance that causes cancer) nicotine is addictive and increases cholesterol levels in your body carbon monoxide reduces oxygen in the body components of the gas and particulate phases cause chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD). The damage caused by smoking is influenced by: the number of cigarettes smoked, whether the cigarette has a filter how the tobacco has been prepared. Smoking is also a delivery system for toxic chemicals and carcinogens. The nicotine in cigarettes is HIGHLY ADDICTIVE, and mostly can’t be unavoidable.
