We all know people who smoke a lot and NEVER GET CANCER. My observation was that less than half. But have you ever seen the number of how many smoke and never get cancer?

I didn’t mind when it began with the label “smoking MAY be hazardous to your health. but it didn’t stop there. IT NEVER STOPS THERE.

The answer is that we are all individual and complex and the environment we encounter is individual and complex.
My Assumption starts with the govt will lie to me about everything unless I can prove they aren’t.
Hell I have read research that low amounts of radiation are beneficial for health.http://www.21stcenturysciencetech.com/articles/nuclear.html
I want the truth given out, not your suggestion. Think about your assumptions in your response. You have been conditioned
“Government is trying to get people to stop harming themselves and costing all of us money” That sounds good until you think about it. Is that what happened with all the money the govt got from the tobacoo companies? Look at results, not intentions........................
