There is no “taste”, no “fun” and no “adventure” in smoking cigarettes. These are justrepparttar 115131 slogans ofrepparttar 115132 cigarette making companies which are multiplying their profits atrepparttar 115133 cost ofrepparttar 115134 precious human lives.

The greedy multi-national multi-billion dollar cigarette manufacturers are killing people quietly without being noticed by anyone.
