    Then read Wendell Berry. culture.

    He addresses that in novels ans essays, profoundly. He's not in denial. He can speak. He's old enough to talk for his self. He has no stone to throw at you? Ask him.

    Just let him address the tobacco issue.

    He's very clear. In Catonsville Md, there is a winding road named 'Rolling Road'...Barrels of the harvested 'smoke' was rolled up and down hills by slaves toward the Patapsco River and train rails...the smoke went to white man's coops for sale. huh-motto. Farmer work. Sell harvest cheap. And buy everything retail.

    Okay- How about your local economy? Let's hope Pall Mall and Pizza Hut aren't down the block? No smoke or breath those residual chemicals in tobacco, or air because a polluter was permitted into your village, town, or urban sprawl neighborhood? He will deal with how rural people survived back then in Kentucky.

    A Mr Giuliani wants a cigar etc., and the demand?

    Read WB and stop casting stones...
