Re: your Nov. 27 article, “Oxnard plans smoking ban in public senior housing�:

What is wrong with the Oxnard City Council members that they can tell persons in senior housing that they can’t smoke in places they live? Are they playing God? I don’t know of any senior with a secondhand smoking problem. But it seems our City Council members do!

I would like to know how much money the state makes off cigarette taxes and how much money Oxnard gets.
