Add tobacco to the controlled substances list as is is more dangerous than many others on it.

Created by S.C. on December 13, 2012

Tabocco is dangerous and should be controlled or limited for the following reasons:
•Tobacco has more that 4,000 chemical; 40 which can cause cancer including: tar, rat poison, candle wax, dirt, soot, manure, arsenic, pesticides, and nicotine,
•Nicotine, a chemical in cigarettes is extremely addicted, and withdrawal symptoms are dangerous.
•Off-hand smoke from others can injure lungs of people who have never smoked before. This is unfair for people that understand the risks and choose not to smoke.

These facts should be recognized and fixed. For the people who are currently addicted to tobacco, Obamacare should help with rehabilitation.
