From the Paper:

""Of all drugs, legal and illegal, tobacco is the greatest killer" even though there are restrictions on tobacco products (Tobacco laws). Dating back to President Clinton, presidents and the Congress has passed laws on restricting tobacco sells and restricting tobacco advertisements. Yet, the statistics of people who smoke remain about the same. As the lives of children, teenagers, and adults are at stake from the danger of tobacco products, more restrictions need to be placed on selling tobacco products and restricting advertisement of tobacco products. "When President Bill Clinton announced in August his intention to implement Food and Drug Administration restrictions on the selling of cigarettes, he hastened to assure the nation's tobacco growers that he felt their pain" (Goldman 25)."
