Blame yourself for addiction.

Great post. We should be educated on the dangers of smoking/vaping. As stated before... what's being advertised and sold is addiction ... addiction that widely causes death. How many of us know cigarettes cannot be advertised in the US? ... because the Federal Government took the tobacco companies to court ... not for selling to back ...but for making cigarettes addictive by adding nicotine to the tobacco ...knowing through their own experiments that nicotine is addictive ...and will make cigarettes addictive. They knew what they were doing. Then they targeted teenagers ... make them addicts when they are young so they'll be hooked for a life time. Besides a hefty fine ... part of the settlement was that cigarettes were not to be advertised to the public. Cigarettes are not advertised on TV ...radio stations ... billboards ....nor even in the movies do we see actors smoking after the ruling. In the State of New York there was an ever increasing tax on cigarettes and ads taken out using people who have serious health issues as a result of smoking. Presently the cheapest price for cigarettes in New York State is around $15 for one pack...yes...20 sticks. It is rare to see anyone under age 25 smoking cigarettes in NY.
To stop smoking.....the patch was introduced ...like a band aid that one sticks to the skin. What they didn't say is the patch releases nicotine into the body through the skin ...to continue feeding the same addiction. Why would you want cigarettes when the nicotine is supplied via the patch? It's basically the same with vaping .... nicotine in yet another form. Let's be aware and not walk into the addiction trap ... addiction is never easy to escape.

Something must kill a man!

We all know what to do, we just don't have the balls to do it.
Decriminalise smoking and ban it's production and importation.

Ppl who die from tobacco don't know how to drag it.
Papa Aaron is 84yrs healthy and smoking Aspen
John was 28 when he died from Tobacco smoking.
Questions
1. Why the difference
2. If papa Aaron lived life exactly as John would he have lived past 28?

Lol. Pls I am not into the business o.
But I know it is allowed because it is loved by many. Its damage is first personal, others will be only affected if they are related and the sm○ker is their source of livelihood.

And the food or product law stipulates that, you must indicate the dangers it carries so that consumers can see, and make informed decisions.
That is why they say "sm●kers are liable to d1e young" on each product pack. They don't do so by choice, a law compels them to.

So haven been @rmed with such information. You will be responsible for your decisions.
Remember, only those 18 and above (adult Nigerian) are legally permitted to take such.

Fair point. But lots of people, including smart people, do insane things all the time.
