And --> And I guess you know what nicotine withdrawal do in some people. They would go out of their mind. ----> 3n khebra ana am talking

It's their fault in the first place.
I totally agree with deAtheganized and xcoder, and I just can't get how people are defending it, we're trying to improve their lives that they keep nagging about and they still say :" NO NOT THE CIGARETTE "

cigarette prices should be like 10000ll or more so they can make the price of important things like food or fuel lower......and the smokers aren't only hurting themselves, they're hurting other people while smoking next to them which is the main reason i'm against smoking......and this way i think the number of smokers will reduce......

Tobacco use kills 438,000 people prematurely every year, including 38,000 people who breathe only secondhand smoke, the CDC said.

“Tobacco use causes more deaths each year than alcohol use, car crashes, suicide, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), homicide, and illegal drug use combined,” the report reads.

“In addition, smoking accounts for $167 billion annually in health care expenditures and productivity losses.”

The report is available at http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/ss5708a1.htm.

Thank You ...

They know all that and always give u one of two lines when you face them with that truth....

Line 1: "I am free to smoke and even kill myself with it. I enjoy it and I don't care what the results are, it is my body"

Line 2: "It is so hard to quit. I will be angry. I will get sick ( ). I will be stressed."

DeAtheganizedfull reply to Line 1: "The statistics show that you are killing me while you are killing yourself which you have no right to do and to which I have every right to respond in every way I see applicable. After all, it is self-defense and I will try to have you for lunch before you have me for dinner .
The second point is I am indirectly paying through my taxes for your health bill that is higher than usual because of your cigarette. Smokers cost the state more money, i.e. they cost taxpayer more money including non-smokers who have no fault in the first place. In any other case, this would at least be called unfair or even a conspiracy against the state ."

DeAtheganizedfull reply to Line 2: " You are a weak slave to a small thing that you burn. You have no will and mostly you lack the courage to try. If one person can quit, everyone including you can quit."

Bottomline, people start off smoking when they are young because they can't find other ways for themselves to look cool. Eventually they are addicts who harm themselves, families, and fellow citizens. Their "pleasure" is a burden on the state and the state must respond by making the purchase of cigarettes a burden on those addicts.

Thank you if you had the patience to read the whole post
