Why isn't chewing tobacco illegal if it is killing many people every year?

Sadly, making tobacco illegal would result in jailing of hundreds or even thousands of young people who sell tobacco in local drug stores. It would result in the job losses of just as many people, and the government just doesn't look at the horrible things it is doing I guess.

What is the short term positive effects of tobacco and chewing tobacco?
The nicotine in tobacco constricts the blood vessels, giving a person a "buzz." Unlike cigarettes, smokeless tobacco companies are legally allowed to put flavors into the tobacco, such as apple, cherry, wintergreen, mint, citrus, etc. It is illegal for cigarette companies to put flavor like those into the cigarettes, so underage people are less attracted to them.

What is chewing tobacco like is it gross?
Tobacco is a versatile drug; it can be smoked, chewed, or snorted in the form of snuff. The gross thing about chewing tobacco (not counting the addictive and carcinogenic properties) is that you chew it and then spit it out, you don't swallow it. It is somewhat disgusting to see someone spit out a wad of brown gunk. In places where this happens a lot, people have (or used to have) a special container for people to spit into, called a spittoon.
How is chewing tobacco made?
Obviously, the curing process of most common chewing tobacco brands includes fermentation. Even if you only chew or dip occasionally, you probably know that there's a big difference between Copenhagen and Grizzly, Kodiak, etc., with Skoal in between somewhere. This is because Copenhagen ferments their tobacco more, which gives a stronger buzz and harsher taste. Usually, someone who's new to chewing tobacco will prefer a lighter brand. After you've flavored your tobacco, or simply added molasses, you'll need to seal it. Pressure may also help in the curing process. Some people do this by twisting the tobacco into ropes, some press it into plugs, or you could seal it in a hollowed out log, (see comments beneath linked article). The next step is to wait. During this time, the tobacco will ferment and the flavor will permeate the leaf entirely. It's up to you how long you wait. It could be anywhere from 1 to 6 months. If you're up to the task of making your own chewing tobacco, I suggest you try many different things, and decide which one gives you the best results.
