This is interesting. With the dramatic drop in smoking by Americans, lung cancer rates are nearly unchanged. Could it be smoking doesn't cause lung cancer? Could it be the cause is from exposure to something else?

Were we lied to again by the powers-that-be? No doubt our wonderful and benevolent HUGE UNLIMITED central government will get to the bottom of this...yeah...right.

You are not going to believe this one. The statistics show that there is no relationship between smoking and lung cancer. The people who have been quoting the statistics apparently don't bother to actually look at them. Lung cancers and lung cancer deaths have stayed roughly the same, despite the huge decline in smoking. One of the issues, which very few people know about, is the cancer-causing smoke that is emitted by canola oil and rapeseed oil. There could also be other factors, like the increase in mold exposure nowadays, and perhaps newer building materials. All we know is that at first glance, the numbers would seem to vindicate tobacco. We always claimed that it wasn't actually the tobacco, but the chemical additives. It makes us wonder if there is anything that they don't lie about.

The graph on lung cancer rates came from the National Cancer Institute (https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/lungb.html).

The other graph came from the Washington Post, who got their data from the CDC (https://www.washingtonpost.com/.../smoking-among-u-s.../).
