Why unfortunate? It shortens life spans which saves money. Then again, it leads to late-life healthcare costs.

As one smoker told me in the early 90s: "If it costs me the last five years of my life, I'm fine with it."

Yes, but who gives treatment to people affected by tobacco if everyone smokes?

A cancerous substance is put on this earth to cause cancer and kill. This is part of God's plan. If there's one thing God hates worse than sin it's gotta be the blacks.

Doesn't seem like a high number to me, they're a tough monkey to kill.
