G'day Ronald...
It's makes me laugh (not your poem) but governments and this entire smoking issue. We get government anti smoking ads rammed down our throats day in and day out, but will the government ban smoking altogether...not in your life...a three letter word T A X rises above the health of constituants.
Thanks Ronald
Lindsay

"What? You think they’ll seed and grow?" I LOVE that!! - anyway down here in NZ the Maori Political Party is lobbying for a price hike for a pack of ciggies from 12.00 to 25.00!.Once again another political ploy to stress out the highest consumers - the low income, unemployed mainly but not exclusively Maori - It's like Lindsay said.. I mean why would Government object to spending a few million up front on smoking cessation programmes - when they can triple it via the back door through the tobacco companies taxes..such hypocrisy!!....primo write my buddy!!

Aloha Ronald...
Well my brother, if only the neo-conned would 86' their mindset like you suggest of the litterbug's butts! Perhaps this line of thinking... the nasty in the trashy... would clean up a bit of the "mouth" feces they spew out for their neo-con masters... I am back to reading... not on a regular basis though... too busy scratching for the 'trickle down' half-pennys we are expected to exist upon to get busy on the comments and my diatribes... go smack as usual and quite to the point... considerateration of our limited and finite environment... a quality thought for the moment... again, a fine effort and a healthy play of thought and word... all of the best from this life to you, and all of your relations...

mahalo great one...yes I do think of neocon conservatives when ever I rant on the sloths and evil wickedness in the world as they are the epidomy of selfishness and root of the worlds problems ...it is always great to hear from you as it alerts me to your activity and reminds me to check your page and learn how poetry should be done Thanks brother
