there are many people around the world who smoke and drinks. No wonder there are a lot of people who suffer from a lung cancer. By smoking not only the disease you get but you also waste your money for nothing. Why do many people love to smoke even though they know its not good for one's health?

I believe that it is just a bad habit. Also, the cigarette companies have been great in marketing their products. They have made cigarette a fashion statement and people think it is fashionable to sport a cigarette. They forgot that what they think looks great outside kills off something very precious inside:)

Also, by promoting so called ethics like before smoking offer it to others around you, the cigarette companies have made sure that the habit spreads around and they keep getting more and more customers!!

That is absolutely true. But, the fact of the matter is that now that people smoke, the cigarette companies want to make sure that they keep smoking!!

I hate smoking.Since I had worked in a hospital specialized in treating lung cancer for eight years.I witnessed how painful these patients are both physicaly and mentally.Most of them died in the end.I suppose goverment should do more to raise the people's awareness in giving up smoking.

Yes that is true. There are lot of people who suffer it. And one of my kin died for the complication of heart disease and lung cancer due to non stop smoking for more than 10 years. He is a chain smokers.
