Want to quit smoking? Check out this infographic

So that's why we see so many addicted drug users - they don't have a handy Infographic!

I'll bet if we plastered the DES with Infographics, addiction would plummet.

I find it amusing that Serbia consumes 3 times the number of cigarettes but has a similar life expectancy to that of Canada despite spending way less per capita on healthcare; and having a notoriously broken and corrupt healthcare system.

The fight against smoking and smokers is ideological. There's plenty of other ways to kill yourself and hurt others - alcohol, fast-food, SUVs, Chinese smog created by our cheap consumer goods, skydiving, long-boarding, driving a car, and it's all considered okay.

People forget that smoking is pleasurable, the activity is enjoyed by many people who don't care that they're hurting themselves, just as people drink soda and eat fast food. You gotta die one way or another; may as well have fun on the way out.
