NYC Mayor Wants Stores to Hide Cigarettes

Mayor Bloomberg wants stores to hide cigarettes behind counters, curtains or cabinets as part of his next anti-smoking effort.

The billionaire former smoker has made anti-tobacco efforts a major part of his mayoralty and private philanthropy.

Bloomberg banned smoking in bars and restaurants during his first term, a move that was not common at the time. He has also donated hundreds of millions to programs that seek to curb smoking around the world.

At 13 bucks a pack, I would be ashamed to show them too.

New Yorkers are notorious for being impatient, but how they have suffered this fool for so long is amazing.

Actually it's a really good idea. We need to stop smoking, nicotine is more dangerous than heroin i reality.

Ya stop the smokers, then we don't get the tax money, than they raise our takes to offset the loss, so we non smokers end up paying more, no, let the smokers continue to pay and die, who cares!!!???
