How to Eliminate Smoking in North Dakota

1. Make it very expensive to smoke. Charge more for smokes. That will discourage people from smoking.

2. Make it difficult for people to buy them. Make places they can buy cigarettes inaccessible. That will slow them down.

3. Make it hard to find places to smoke. Don’t allow people to publicize places they could smoke if they desired to do so.

4. Allow smoking only in private places. Smoking there only if you have permission to enter there.

If you are aggressive in using this and other very restrictive policies smoking will stop and become a non mainstream activity only practiced by a few elite people on private property and frowned upon by most of the rest of society.

Wait, I’m talking about hunting here. The same policies as applied to hunting policy will kill hunting in North Dakota just a surely. Is that what we really want? Think about it please.
