Check out chick-filet those people stick to their moral principals and they are a huge corporation.
I've always thought it was a ridiculously selective rule, and PayPal have had it for a long time!
If I can play devil's advocate and guess why they're doing it - I think it is because of fear of litigation rather than some kind of crusade for health in humankind ... they're a big internet corporation - they are surely not deliberately losing money because of some higher moral principle ... they don't have any principles ... for example in the UK they spend millions avoiding paying legitimate taxes along with Amazon, Starbucks and Google.
Nope - it is the ridiculous pernicious litigation culture at work - it's coming out of the USA and in to the UK in the past few years and makes companies so wary of being sued that they end up behaving so defensively that they do things like PayPal have here. I wish all the two-penny lawyers would just disappear and stop encouraging this kind of blame culture. Without that we would go back to common sense.
Rant over - I hope it was not in breach of the no-politics rule. Kind of hard to cope with the rules on this site as most things end up political if you go in to them in much depth. Especially laws and rules concerning tobacco!
