For all those smokers out there

the tax here is huge, a cigarettes value is about 2p, yet a 10pack cost 3pound which means the value of one cigarette is 30p so the tax is like 15x the value of 1 cigarette

Whoa, it must be tough for you guys. . . a pack of 19 cigarettes costs like 1,30 euros here...

yeah, in other countries it's so cheap compared to here, although if you order it of websites you can get 200 for 28pound (shitty brand ciggys) which is 2.80 per 20 pack, but yours still work out cheaper...0_0

This is one of the reasons my dad and mum HAD to quit.

here it costs 4 euros for 1 small pack

The tax is high because cigarettes are a demerit good.
Its also an incentive to stop smoking, but the government knows that a lot of people are addicted so it raises the tax on them.

Raise the tax all they want I say, more money for the government. If people don't want to pay, they won't buy them. Simple as.

Smoker maths

Smoking = Relaxation
People bitching about smoking = Stress for smokers

Relaxation+Stress = no relaxation = more smoking = more tax money 

The more the government bitches about smoking the more people are actualy gonna smoke do drugs drink alcohol etc etc etc etc.

Yes, i am an addicted smoker at 15 sad but, its my choice nobody can tell me what to do. Sure there's health risks. I started because i got depressed, me failing school was mainly it and now i just have maybe 4 a day and i feel ok. Why should it be bad for someone wanting to feel ok?

[Samaron]

because the world is trying to form everyone into one group of brainwashed zombies that belive everything they see on the little light box and smoking doesnt support the zombie stuff so everything that sets people apart from eachother should die and burn in the firey pits so the world elite can rule over everyone without any resistance and so that everyone belives all the crap they tell you  and you know what ITS WORKING !!!

My mates sometimes try and offer me a quick cig, I turn it down, I have no problem with them smoking, or smokers at all, its their choice, they no the risks, health, money... And its my choice not to smoke, for my own reasons..

The world would be already over if it was THAT easy to manipulate people. People can bad guy about smoking as much as they want, I personaly don't give a damn about it, it does not concirn me a bit even.

its pretty easy to manipulate a smoker, like i used to smoke, now stopped, but when im tired or pissed off i smoke without thinking, someone tried to mess with me and i nearly hit him with a broken glass bottle but a friend stopped me,, after a smoke i was good, but later i hit that guy stil...   :rules:

Please, speak for yourself only. I am quite sure that smoking has nothing to do with the ability to avoid being manipulated or does not harm in any way your mental process.
You can be manipulated when you are drunk, but not when you are a smoker, it has nothing to do with it...
