Absolutely. When the smoke clears and you look at the side-effects such as second-hand smoke, this whole habit becomes very selfish and destructive. I have certain relatives that choose to live at the near-poverty level, yet they smoke like chimneys all of them.... paying like $7-$8 per pack, yet they can't afford enough groceries to feed their kids. Their fucking smokes are the LAST thing to go in the budget..... amazing. Utterly selfish, completely clueless. And the kids will likely smoke when they grow up as well.
And don't get me started on women who smoke (or drink for that matter) while pregnant, or idiot fathers-to-be who smoke around their pregnant women. Once the baby is born these people should be shot, the kid adopted and raised by people who care enough to NOT smoke around them.
