Everyone knows that people smoke not because they are addicted but because they choose to smoke.

Are you serious? Why then do so many people fail to quit even when they really wish to? Or are they just lying about their wish to quit?

I wouldn't say they are lying, but many smokers have given into the anti-smoker's mantra that "all" smokers want to quit but are so addicted they can't.......it becomes a self-fullfilling prophecy based on lies espoused by people who "know what's best" for others.
