If We Evolved From Apes/Monkeys Why Are The Still Here

You were the one who brought up evolution Christina so I thought I would ask the question. But I would like to point out that we smokers did not expect Dalton to build the smoking shelters...this was a decision made in the name of avarice by a government who conned the people. NO NEW TAXES!

Evolution's political detour
By CHRISTINA BLIZZARD

Frankly, I think it's just more proof Darwin was right.

The people who voluntarily and cheerfully hand over their hard-earned cash to the government, gambling at those glitzy casinos, want to retain the right to clog their lungs with all the poisons you find in cigarette smoke while they are doing so.

They play Russian roulette with their health and therefore live shorter lives. But by gambling and smoking they pay more in taxes before they prematurely shuffle off this mortal coil. At the gaming tables, they voluntarily fork over money directly from their pockets to the government.

Then think of all the money they pay in cigarette taxes. So why is everyone surprised that the people who want to smoke and gamble also expect us to spend $2 million to build a smoking room -- oops, a two-walls-and-a-roof structure -- at Casino Windsor?

And other things......
