Stop Underage Smoking

Created by M.W. on September 28, 2011

Stop smoking for persons under the age of 18. Currently in most states it is legal for a person under the age of 18 to smoke cigarettes. Starting an addicting substance at such a young age can make in much harder for the impacted children to kick the habit. Help pass a bill to end underage smoking. Benefits include, health care, most health care providers will directly charge extra to a smoker in a family, especially if you have a "company-paid" health care, second being the environment. Many disregard the environmental effect they have by disposing of cigarettes out into nature instead of proper disposal into the trash. Finally, impact on family, cigarettes are expensive, and any saving it can have financially can help a family economically. Thank you for you time.
