I just read something on About.com It said that ammonia makes nicotine stronger in your body. When you smoke a cig with ammonia in it, you are free basing nicotine. Just like people do with cocaine. I can't believe that the goverment allows them to do this. I guess our goverment really likes the tax money they make.
Have a great day everyone! _________________

of course they like the tax money; they only pay lip service to the public health when it suits their purposes. i recently saw where new york city is spending a million dollars on an anti-smoking ad campaign; i thought that was a ridiculously small amount, and i looked up how many smokers there are in new york: if all of them buy only a single pack a day, the city makes over 2 million dollars every day from the $1.50 tax they add to cigarettes above and beyond federal and state taxes.

I am so upset with myself for buying into these lies. All these years. They have made plenty of money off me. NO MORE! I am free. _________________
