My mother smoked when I was growing up and when she was pregnant.

Each time I inhale a tiny bit of cigaret smoke, I immediatly feel bad and start coughing. Really feels like a poison.

Here in france, a pack of cigaret will soon cost 7 euros. I'm glad. It's a great way to penalize people while reducing the deficit, and encouraging them to stop smoking.

Each time I hear someone complaining about the cost of cigaret in france, I tell them "well it's a great way to finance chemotherapies".

Smoking is a luxury. When you feels you don't have a sharp mind or enough energy at work, and you boosts yourself with a coffee and a cigaret, okay, but I don't think you really need to have those boosts. I'd prefer getting fired instead than competing with drug addicts.
