Why do they make cigarettes if they know they are bad for you?

Why do they make cigaretts if they know they are bad for you?I dont get it.Someone please help me.

Also does anyone know any good ways to stop smoking because I want to talk my dad into stop smoking he stoped for like 3 months but when he went to...

Iraqu he said he just needed to start because that was the only thing he had. But now that he is home I want to help him stop and he is willing to stop but I dont know any good ways to stop smoking

That's a very good question...they ban drink driving because it kills people, yet they continue to sell cigarettes which kills thousands more people each year than car accidents do...unfortunately, it's all about the money...NOTHING more. It's disgusting.

because they can make money and because they want you to die

Because government charges taxes on cigarettes...and taxes (if you have a good government) actually benefit you indirectly...depending on what they use it for.

because they just want to make money

cigarettes can be made cheap and sold high. cigarette companies bring in a lot of tax money for the government. thus keeping it legal

you like pizza? so they make it and you buy it...

so its a simple answer...supply and demand...

its an addictive drug...so you stay on it to create constant cash flow for that company...thats why people should quit

They make a lot of money. also some people are completely hooked and will freak out if they cant get more. MANY people would like attack the cigaretee company, and people would then try to make their own and whatnot.

when I was little my dad used to smoke. theres really nothing you can do except suggest things; he will probably still turn them down. we begged and annoyed and asked daddy when will you stop smoking??!! for like 3 years until he was like fine ill stop if you stop... now he doesnt smoke

How to quit smoking?

You can't quit smoking. You CAN become a non-smoker.

There is a big difference in the way your mind and body reacts to the two attempts. In quitting smoking your mind and body tell each other that you are trying to deprive it of something it likes and needs, therefore it works hard at preventing you from succeeding.

In becoming a non-smoker you successfully attain your goal while not giving your mind and body a chance to perceive that they are being deprived.

Along with the above attitude change, you can help achieve your goal by having on hand some hard candy. Whenever you feel the urge to smoke simply place a piece of candy in your mouth.

Don't try to refrain from smoking forever. Simply refrain for the next couple of hours.

I, personally, know that the above works. I smoked for 30 years and was up to two packs a day. I successfully became a non-smoker 22 years ago. It wasn't always easy and I still have nightmares that I've started smoking again and blown my smoke-free record but then I wake up and am thankful it was only a dream.

The candy I used was Gobstopper Jaw Breakers. The lasted about 10 minutes each and effectively replaced the craving for a cigarette.

You, too, can become a non-smoker, even if you're surrounded by people who smoke. It is your choice. When offered a cigarette you don't say no thanks, I'm trying to quit but instead state no thanks, I don't smoke.

Good Luck!

Dunno about other countries but here in NZ it is taxed HEAPS. Same with alcohol.
Govt taxes them, too many people are addicted so I don't think it will stop for a long time.
