No to cigs but yes to weed?

Please explain how government can overtax cigarettes and then support marijuana.

Are they both not hazards to your health and with marijuana won’t this cause higher DUIs?

Has anybody said what the price of marijuana is going to cost, because I haven’t heard. There are a lot of hypocrites in our government.
