49. It does seem to penalize the poor.
If you own your own home, you can smoke. If you can't afford to buy a home and you smoke, I guess it's the porch for you. (If that's even allowed.) I heard that if you were a smoker renting now, you would be exempt until you moved to a new place. I can see it now...smokers clinging to their apartments for decades so they can continue to smoke in their homes.
