People who die from smoking do so at a younger age than if they didn't smoke and end up costing LESS in total health care than if they didn't smoke.
Same goes with other gubmint social services like social security, medicare, pensions, etc.
They SAVE society money by smoking and that doesn't even touch on all the BS taxes they have to pay on that tobacco.
I used to smoke but quit.
I quit because I wanted to, not because a bunch of bleeding heart liberal dweebs told me to.

This just in 12 years ago: Philip Morris (the company that sells 80% of cigarettes in the Czech Republic) study finds smoking saves countries money!! Who could have known a tobacco company would conclude something like that?
You may have zero'd out the credibility meter but good on you for quitting smoking regardless of what dweeb convinced you it was a good idea.
