Banning Tobacco Sales
Ke'ale
My controversial issue
My issue is banning tobacco. Obviously tobacco is bad for you whether its smoked or any other form of it. Some companies make billions a year off of just selling it.
My position
I honestly have no idea why its not band already, 5.8 million people smoke in america and tobacco kills 1 in 3 people that use that means 1.9 million people will die from it and that's just in america.
Support for my position
Against this subject
I couldn't find an article that's not against banning tobacco but if i was someone who did want to keep tobacco this is what i would probably say say "My company makes billions of dollars a year off of tobacco sales, if they ban tobacco half the money that my company makes is just going down the drain." and "Also if we ban tobacco sales the black market could could increase tremendously."
Summary
I can tell that there are a lot of pros and cons about banning tobacco like expansion of the black market or loosing billions of dollar, both sides are a good argument.
What I found interesting
When I was on Google there were almost no articles really related half were about the navy banning tobacco the other half was about CVS banning tobacco. Another thing that surprised me was how many reasons to ban tobacco there were in the article that supported my position.
My position after reading the article
Because the only article I could find was supporting my position it just gave me more reasons to want tobacco to be banned. But the the information I put in the article against my position were facts.
