Why Smoking Is Good

“Put that cigarette out!” How many times have you heard that? No smoking laws are against our constitutional rights. There are many pamphlets and warnings out there telling you not to smoke. But why? Have you ever thought of that? It is your choice if you want to smoke and many new studies have shown that certain chemicals in cigarettes and tobacco are good for you! The harmful things and cigarettes are not harmful in small amounts. I believe that cigarettes and the people who smoke them have gotten a bad reputation. Many anti-smoking company’s spew many statements that have no facts behind it. They are giving you faulty information. 400,000 people are killed annually by smoking. This is false. It was computer generated by a program called SAMMEC by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). This figure is is nothing but an estimate, they blatantly ignore all the rules of epidemiology, and inflating the effects of smoking. This program SEMMEC is also behind the large scary numbers of 3-5 million children will die of smoking! This program does not count in all the other factors that said smoker does. If a man lives a sedentary life style, with heart problems, but chooses to smoke then dies. This program counts his death purely on smoking, not on any of his other health risks that put him in more risk of average smokers. The CDC and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also give you false scientific facts about cigarettes. They trick you by using words that normal people won't understand and that so called “experts” can use to fool you further. Using federal money big companies produce pseudo-statistics, which laypeople cant comprehend. Companies like the CDC and EPA produce faulty science faster than true scientists can tell you it’s false. A man by the name of Theodore Sterling looked into a report that the CDC said that not smoking caused 270,000 deaths. By two simple corrections he made to the CDC’s work, he showed that the number could be cut in half!
