Posted by: Murcielago00The stigma attached to smoking is entirely warranted. It's a completely idiotic habit, and unfortunately, always harms society, either through second-hand smoke or through littering. It would be great to say that personal smoking doesn't harm others, but this simply is not true.If everyone stopped smoking, people would sure miss all that tax revenue from buying cigarettes. So, while you may think there are no positive benefits, all that tax money the government collects and uses is a positive. Where I live, more than 50% of the cost of buying cigarettes is tax.
Although, I agree with the littering. Why they can't throw it in the garbage, or leave it in their car instead of tossing it, is beyond me.
