What don't they...

|

|
 | 3/3/2015 - You gotta love it when arrogant science devotees defiantly claim they alone have a monopoly on the "settled facts" of our reality. Throughout much of the 20th century, it turns out, these same sort of arrogant scientists claimed smoking was awesome for your health, too.
"More doctors smoke Camels...
|
 | 3/3/2015 - Every time corporations want to shove their poisons down our throats, they claim to have a monopoly on "science." Anyone who disagrees with the corporate propaganda is then labeled "anti-science."
This tactic didn't originate with the biotech industry, Big Pharma or vaccine pushers: it was also a...
|
 | 12/15/2014 - Are you sick of "trying" to quit cigarettes? You've tried to lose weight before, right? You don't have time to exercise or you just don't feel like it.

|
 | 3/21/2014 - If politicians and law enforcement are so eager to protect Americans from themselves, then they should break in and raid people's homes, taking their boxes of sugar cookies, sugar cereals and sugar jars instead, because, frankly, sugar is way more dangerous and addictive than pot. The American majority...
|
 | 2/8/2014 - Which "drug" store do you buy your cigarettes from? Is it Rite Aid, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Target, Kroger or CVS?

|
 | 12/17/2013 - Have you ever wondered why cigarettes don't go out in heavy wind and why they burn so evenly, all the way from one end to the other?

|
 | 10/26/2013 - It's amazing that research funded by the tobacco industry was ever accepted and published by medical journals. But evidently, it's been going on for some time. The research bought and paid for mostly focuses on attempting to debunk concerns about second hand smoke.

That is the number one reason why 95% of smokers who try to quit without help will return...
|
 | 6/10/2013 - Smoke herbicide and pesticide all day and what do you get?

|
 | 2/24/2013 - First, let's investigate part of that formula. What do you get when you mix ammonia with bleach and burn it? You get a toxic fire that doesn't go out in heavy wind.

|
 | 2/6/2013 - The best metaphor for the smoking addiction and how it has gotten so many millions of people hooked is gambling. Gambling is a major addiction in the United States for many people.

Entitled...

 | 1/10/2012 - Tobacco is some kind of "devil weed," only good for making chemical-laden products like cigarettes, known to promote cancer. At least, that's the current take on this plant.

|
| 12/11/2011 - The truth is that most pack-a-day smokers are hooked and cannot figure out how to quit, mainly because most cessation methods don't address the true depth of the addiction, and most are just scams that are marketed by "Big Pharma" to damage your health even further and send any "ex-smokers" right back...
|
 | 6/23/2011 - The FDA has released nine new graphic warning labels that will be required on U.S. cigarettes, offering grotesque visual images designed to dissuade smokers from purchasing cigarettes.

|
| 6/12/2009 - There's no other word to describe it: The U.S. Senate's tobacco control bill is pathetic.
