in a room of people‚ I sometimes feel like fish out of water. Although the people around me may think I’m not as different‚ it’s probably because I have learned to hide it throughout the years.

Should Tobacco be Illegal Tobacco is deeply ingrained into the roots of America and is a very addictive and deadly force. Since the success of the first commercial crop in 1612‚ tobacco has been raking in billions of dollars annually.(CNN) Even today tobacco is one of the largest exports in the world despite the staggering number of deaths that it causes each year. So why is it that tobacco is still legal? I feel we should just get rid of it completely‚ but it isn’t that
