Try $2.00 a pack if I don't roll my own I smoke cigars. My health is only of concern to me, I have no one in my life that will suffer when I'm gone. How am I being selfish when I do everything I can to limit anyone else's exposure to my smoke, I either field strip and pocket them after smoking or find a proper place to dispose of them, that seems like a considerate type of behavior
Once again if they even had a trash can I could have disposed of the spent cigarette properly after extinguishing it.
It is the people who are restricting smokers that are being selfish in my eyes.
Why can't I open a restaurant that allows smoking and just put a sign at the entrance that alerts people to the fact there is smoking allowed here? The employees would be hired knowing before hand so they could choose if they wanted to work for you or not.
Choice a thing of the past in this free country
So in my eyes it's the people who want to impose their beliefs on me and control my legal actions.

So if you own a company and decide to abolish smoking on the property because smokers cost so much more in health insurance (just like fatties), that is being selfish?A lot of progressive companies also fund smoking cessation programs as well as Jenny Craig programs.Is that selfish? Some adults are like kids;they don't know what is good for them. In Ed's case he is too addicted and looks for ways to justify his habit.Most smokers probably bitch about the cost of healthcare too...
