The production and sale of cigarettes should be made illegal
Nowadays in the present world smoking cigarettes has become a trend for every age of people and they take it as a fashion. A statistics shows that nearly $8.37 billion are used by the cigarette industries on advertising and promotions annually. And almost $23 million are used every day for the same purpose.

It is obviously a big issue today. Some people, mostly nonsmokers are against smoking. Nevertheless if we look at this issue rationally and logically and not
