Population control they're just not dangerous enough I mean Lucky Strike was recommended by 9 out of 10 doctors in 1950 and then you never even heard about cancer until they started putting those fibrous filters on them you know black lung is asbestos fibers in your lungs and if you do a little research you'll find that a lot of the longest living humans on the planet we're smokers yes the world's oldest human verified was 120 years old lived in France and she credited her long life to never being romantically involved having kids she always enjoyed her coffee wine and cigarettes and she quit smoking at the age of 117 after starting when she was in her 20s it turns out that when you age you lose a chemical out of your blood when your 30-ish and the only chemical they found that triggers it in adults over 30 is nicotine derivative and all of the research that was done since the 40s we're done on cells that habitual smoker who had cancer and weirdly enough their cells could live outside of her body so any research that was done on living cells was done on a black lady from Alabama who died from cancer in the 40s hey I've been smoking since I was 13 I'm 54 now and I recently had a bypass my heart problems are related to no pain management 4 3 decades if there is anything cancerous they would have seen it and then there was that Health guy that used to jog everywhere insisting it was good for his health and then had a heart attack so you never know life is a crapshoot
