If you stop smoking

Murali
By Murali

Imagine that every one stops smoking. Then what will happen.

All the Cigarette and Cigar companies will closed and all the employees will loose there jobs. There will be millions of people working in those companies.

Then the farmers get affected they will stop doing tobacco cultivation and it so many farmers will not have food if they do that.

The govt will loose the revenue on those products.

So what do you think you should stop smoking or ????

It's, like, no more sinners in this world. LOL

I ain't smoking since. Only smoked in my theatre acting days when the character I portray needs to smoke...and I got a girl (take note:girl) to teach me how to smoke, not a guy!

The thing that I just can't understand in smoking is...what's so 'delicious' about it? It's not like you need to chew it like a bubble gum to taste the sweetness or something...

Probably is there now as well but the only reason is because the bloody Zim government took over the rich tobacco fields from the farmers and let the things die die and die. Travesty in itself. Don't even get me started on Zimbabwe! We;ll be here for hours!

It is down at the Salwa Road. Now I don't know how to go there due to diversion of roads for new road constructions. I wouldn't advice you to go to that area :(

You should keep smoking. It will help in a small way to control the world's population which is getting out of control..

why is everyone smoking bashing these days?? just let the smokers be... thats point number one... no. 2 is murali, you raise a very good arguement... smokers cant stop smoking, because of the economy.. thats the simple reason.... we do it for the economy!!! :) and all those thousands of jobs.... great justification, love it!!!

What it comes down to... is we quit smoking and quit eating fast food (and all the cause and effect as a result thereof) , no one will be employed any longer in anything actually..... imagine just the transport sector as well....trucks won't be moving, duties on all other goods in countries will increase because of the revenue that will decrease from massive reduction in imports, taxes will increase, blah blah blah.....

Oh the mighty butterfly effect.

S'cuse me..... going out for another cigarette.

before and won't do that ... would support of course closing those factories forever ... You forgot to look to the dark side of smoking ... Simply the amount of money spent on treating different cases because of smoking in the hospitals [cancers, heart attacks , etc ... I don't think that the amounts spent there are a joke ...

Just think how much your taxes would go up, especially in places like the UK where a packet of cigs costs QR35 and QR 30 is the government's tax portion

just eat another pie

If we all stopped eating fast food, then the fast food companies would shut down, and the producers of processed food would feel the crunch..... get where I am going?

Although it is a wonderful concept it is just that.
