Maybe one piece of truth nobody wants to hear is smoking PREVENTS ling cancer.
When the adult smoking rate goes down, the lung cancer rate goes up. Maybe those ex-smokers neva would've gotten LC if they neva stopped smoking.
And depending on how you wanna look at it, being s smoker saves you money since lots of nonsmokers would ratha waste their money on beer cases, Js, illegal drugs, and buying too much fast food. Smoking a cig makes a good substitute for snorting coke (which is a he!!uva lot more expensive than a cig pack).
A cig makes a good sub for even eating a bag of potato chips as a snack.

"Small" benefits? How about the fact that since nicotine is a known poison and we smokers undoubtedly have it in our blood, our blood may be antagonistic to bacteria and viruses? Ever thought of that? I am a long-time smoker and in the last 30 years I have not had any bacterial or viral infection! Where is the research on THIS? Cathy
That's a good point. While I had occassional colds since being a smoker for the past 10 years, I neva had the flu before...which is worse than the common cold.
I tend to agree smoking prevents me and mills of otha smokers from catching serious colds/bacterial infections. Of course, you wont hear antis say that. They don't wanna give smoking a good light.
