29% of adults below the poverty line smoke compared to 18% above the poverty.

Given that there are a lot more people than there are rich people. Most smokers are poor.

Cigarettes are the most evil , vile invention imaginable. I truly believe that the CEOs of tobacco companies should all be executed for crimes against humanity. Smoking is the worlds most devestating mental illness, and cigarettes are the world's most harmful drug. I made my wife quit when we started dating and I am so grateful she was strong enough to do it. Evil motherfuckers trying to kill my wife for money. Those who profit from selling tobacco should be forced to smoke continuously until they die on live television.


It's called simple pleasures and more importantly, moderation. Your wife is still gonna die

I mean, being a smoker sucks, I agree with you. But that doesn't mean cigarettes suck

That's still a lot of rich smokers though. Not to mention you said adults, there's also a ton of teen smokers. Doesn't really fit the word "most"

actually it specifically fits the word "most"

if 51 smokers are poor
and 50 smokers are rich

most smokers are poor.

From a statistical standpoint you are right. I was talking about how smoking is used and perceived on society, because I think that's more interesting. Fact is a ton of rich people smoke.

fact is, more poor people smoke than rich people

but i kinda understand, maybe, what i think you are trying to say.

poor people smoke because rich celebrities smoke.

I'm trying to say it doesn't matter if more poor people smoke than rich people. "Most smokers look dirty, stink and are mostly poor" is just not accurate even if it is statistically true.

I couldn't agree more.

I was in the store the other day, I noticed a pack of cigs was around $5. $5 for the priviledge of poisoning yourself.  Let 'em smoke I say.  But consider this:  Obama signed a bill raising the federal tax from .39 to $1.01 per pack.

Or in other words, Mr. Assclown just taxed the fuck out of the poor he purports to support, since it is the poor who usually smoke.  :smirk:

There is no word to describe how I hate alcohol...

1) It smells so bad... Beer or liquor, holy fuck is that smell annoying. I have one roommate that drinks. His breath smells like a brewery and it stinks up the house.

2) Bottles and cans everywhere. That's like top shelf nasty.

3) Most alcoholics look dirty, stink and are mostly poor. It just looks bad.

End rant

In Canada, the justification for higher cig taxes is that the smokers will pay for the additional health services that they might use later on in life. What's the reasoning behind the tax hike down there?

I agree with most here, cigs are fucking nasty, I'd never smoke em. But the nonetheless, I think people do sorta have a right to buy and smoke them if they please. People have the right to eat McDonalds every day and become obese, as far as I'm concerned that's just as bad as smoking cigs.

Maybe I'm wrong here, if someone wants to chime in feel free, but isn't most of the pleasure derived from smoking cigs caused by the addiction to nicotine? For example, if I wanna smoke a J, its not because I feel withdrawl symptoms from not being high, I simply find being high enjoyable. Where as with Cigs, when ur not feeling the effects, you actually feel uncomfortable and so you smoke another to feel "normal." Is this right? If so, all the more reason to never smoke them.

"Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009"d

Anytime you see 'Children' in a bill, it inoculates politicians from the fallout of their actions, since to vote against it would cause them to spend the next election fighting off the accusations of 'he wouldn't help the children'

Cigarettes do stink up your clothes, your car, and your house.  Plus they cost a shitload.

I love the nicotine buzz though, especially in combination with alcohol, opiates, or uppers.  Hence why I switched to an e-cigarette and am now able to enjoy tasty flavors in tandem with only spending $20 a month compared to ~$400, not inhaling carbon monoxide + tar + whatever other hundreds of additives the cigarette companies throw into their products, and not stinking up my surroundings.  :smirk:

Still gotta say that a chick looks 10x sexier while exhaling smoke from her perfectly make-up'd lips, though.  :satansmoking:
