So ... Come the Revolution (or a Nader presidency), teenagers won't take
risks any more?  What's the point of being a teenager?

Cigarettes are a cheap luxury which a lot of people enjoy.  Things fried
in lard taste good.  Why should a progressive agenda try to suppress, or
even discourage, cheap, almost-innocent pleasures?  Why do we have to
assume that people are stupid?  Why are we even worried about these
kinds of choices?

Best, Colin
