The store owners will be happy, the environmentalists will be happier, and the air will be cleaner after all of the smokers are dead and gone. Predictably, the cigarette factories will be closed forever. Should we stop here? How about closing down all pollutant emitting factories and machines of all kinds to reclaim fresh, clean air? Wouldn’t that kill capitalism everywhere? Ouch!
