Cigarette smoking on the increase

[rightwinger]

Yes, but in the type of bar I am talking about it covered up the smells of stale beer, piss, and vomit.

And the Urinals filled with cigarette butts stopping them from flushing

My dad told me it was only 25 cents for a pack of cigarettes when he was a teenager.

I paid twelve cents for roll yer own.

You didn't have to do that before they banned the cigarettes in the first place.

Is that an excuse?

No, it's a reason why people sneak smokes in the bathroom in places where there are bans, and in the urinal or toilet is safer than into the trash bin.

It's also a reason why we find Hypodermic needles in parks. Addicts are addicts.

Sorry, but I don't equate heroin use with cigarette use.

Also, the needles are always hidden under the lid of the toilet clean water tank in the bathroom.

Ipso facto.

Hiding in Plain Sight of the Blinded

Americans are educated to ignore contradictory facts, instead of realizing that one of them cannot be the truth. How could R.J. Reynolds buy a giant like Nabisco, when smoking was decreasing? They also bought the maker of Lucky Strikes.

The answer is not that it wasn't decreasing; it can only be that RJR's profit margin had increased 10 times (1,000 %), hidden behind the massive increase in cigarette taxes (which themselves funded toxic government programs).

I quit when a pack was $ .50 or so.....~S~

"Toxic Masculinity"

Preppies are sissies afraid of all masculine images. So their Daddies, who control our laws and New Age science, attacked smoking, with the help of a few wimpy medical researchers—lab mice. That picture explains the real reason behind restrictions on smoking.
