I know that smoking is bad because it affects your health, makes you die early and a lot of disadvantages. But I really don't see the point of why would the government allow selling of cigars and cigarette if it destroys a persons health. Well my point is that, I tried to do smoking just two sticks. I think it's fine to smoke as long as you know how to control yourself. Some people told me that it is addictive but I think they're wrong. It is just them that doesn't know self-control right? That's all! :)

Hi kevingee, Government won’t ban the selling of these products because they need the income from this business. They are getting huge profit from this business so they want to an only the smoking and use of these products and there is a strict ‘no’ for stopping the sales. It is just like the double game, they want the profit from the field and at the same they banned the usage. Obviously they are not bothered about the health of the people…

Smoking is not as bad at all, the only thing you need to do is control it. But as you grow older you wil see the effect of smoking. You will get bad breath, lung cancer and all the stuff and even make you look older.

There is a lot of things wrong with somking. Not just your health, but other people's health is involved. For instance second hand smoking. For me, I just hate to be around smoke, walking around or next to people who do smoke I would have to hold my breathe. Just the smell of it, hurts me the most. So if people won't to affect their health (im speaking in general) don't affect others. And I was too happy when I found out a couple years back that the government banned somking in public places.

Smoking is not good for you and for people around you. I hate smoke and I don't like to be around people who smoke because every time I get back home all my clothes are smelling very bad.
