Quote by: Technosoul  The whole purpose of the conspiracy was to create that impression in the public mind.
In the 1970s everyone knew that smog was the main cause, resulting in an advertising blizits to change public opinon, so people would not protest agenst industry ( Oil and fuel companies, Dow chemicals, computer chip companies, auto and military products). It worked, now you and most of the public believe that tobacco is the main cause. Now people protest tobacco. Which is what you to do and why they manipulated public opinion.
This has already been gone over a few times through-out this thread, you do not agree with those facts.
You are helping them create that opinon by repeating the same claim over and over.
All health porffesionals are involved in repeating the claim, they are not involved in any research and will repeat what they are told to repeat. A doctor can bill medicare or an insurance company for spending time to tell you to stop smoking, they are paid to tell you that. (but they will not show you, or provide for you, the notes taken about how the so-called studies were conducted or funded).
Why are you just repeating the claim and not debating the facts I have presented to counter educate you?
If smoking is the main cause why are we still donating money for cancer research?
Why are people who are not exposed to cigarette smoke still dieing from cancer? |
What would be the reason for the conspiracy? The government gets a lot of revenue from cigarettes, so if it was harmless seems like they'd want everybody TO smoke.The more smoker's the more tax dollars.
There are lots of cancer causing agents out there, but cigarette smoke is quite concentrated and it would really get in those lungs and body parts more voraciously than the other agents unless you were also in close contact with say asbestos, but asbestos and lung cancer vary in how they damage, and usually it can be differentiated when asbestos has caused the damage. Many times people who have lung cancer come down with a certain type of pneumonia and this is usually what speeds the diagnosis of lung cancer. This has been my experience.
Fact is people who smoke get more diseases and are sick more than non-smokers, and overall we all come into contact with car fumes, and other potentially hazardous materials on a daily basis, but take the non-smokers and the smokers and separate who gets the lung cancer, heart disease, and all the rest, and it's the smoker's who get the diseases more frequently and die younger overall. Sorry, but it's a fact. Don't need a scientist on that one.
I think the point of smoking is it starts out as a fad, something to do, it looks cool, it's now a defiance of death, and then after a couple packs you can't stop. If you have the will-power it can be done, but it's a tough road, and you need a plan. I think you should really try to quit, and then when you do you will feel all-powerful. This was my experience. I don't feel all safe or anything cause I smoked a very long time, but I still like the extra cash in my pocket.
