Cigarettes are actually good for you. Cigarettes are good for you, yeah? Obviously, smoking a pack a day—yes, you will get cancer, you will die. But I think in moderation, one to two a day can actually be beneficial to your health. It's good for digestion. First of all, if you think about it, all of the countries with like the highest lifespans, they all smoke way more than we do.
That's true. I think alcohol is honestly worse for you. Alcohol is probably worse. The American Healthcare System is just backwards, and I think that we allow for like things in our food that are killing us way faster and more readily than cigarettes.
So what's your take?
