Smoking
Smoking is not very
good for you, in fact, the rumors are true, smoking is actually quite unhealthy! Advertising
in the 1930's through the 1950's used doctors to try to promote smoking (here,

here). A study in 1950 showed the
connection with smoking but the public did not take notice until 1964 (go

numbers killed in the entire Viet Nam War (58,168.) 21% of Americans still smoke (see data) and
uneducated people smoke allot more than educated (see data.) Consider the
