Thank you for smoking.<p>Best movie clip ever: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=yrxRCTUt6OY" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=yrxRCTUt6OY</a><p>It also helps when you have investments in cigarette companies, because why not? When there are advertisements sent out by the very companies themselves to avoid their product, and people still do it? There must be something to it! And money to be made!<p>But in all seriousness, everyone chooses their poison which comforts them, whether it be alcohol, prescription drugs, cigarettes, food, television, etc. This is the beauty of free will and choice. No matter what the research says, people will still do it. I&#x27;ve work in a hospital before and saw plenty of patients with lung cancer who passed away right before my eyes. Once the scene was cleared and cleaned up, the nurses and doctors would go right outside and smoke cigarettes. They know the possibility is there, yet make the choice to continue doing self-harm.
