- LocalH 7y agoFederal government's gotten too big, and operates outside of the boundaries the Constitution outlines (Commerce Clause? More like "we do what we want clause"). This should very clearly be a state issue, at most. Federal government has no business making these decisions. Lemme guess - they didn't implement a gradual introduction of this policy, meaning that suddenly tons of people who could legally smoke won't be able to do so. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, yet the article doesn't really say.
