No mention of second-hand smoke? Somebody's never been to dinner within fifty feet of the General Wolfe Tavern!

Even when the penalty for smuggling has been death (like Spain under Franco, or this year's gangland retaliations in Mexico), there were always those who would smuggle liquor, cigarettes, or drugs.

There's no "outlawing" the reality of addictive behavior or its consequences.
