There's a very good reason for this. Nicotine, when smoked in cigarettes, is a very fast acting ant-depressant, ant-anxiety agent and pain killer all wrapped up in one nice convenient little package. In fact, it's so good at these things that, during WWII, the U.S. Army promoted smoking and issued free cartons of cigarettes to soldiers. Cigarettes were also standard issue in the medic's kit. When a soldier was wounded, the first thing the medic would do is throw a cigarette in their mouth. So, it's really no wonder that people smoke cigarettes.

“If you do good things to benefit others it is good for you. If you do harmful actions against others it is bad for you.”

— Tai Situ Rinpoche

Screw reward and punishment. What an absolutely lame reason to do good. Here's a novel idea. How about doing good things to benefit others simply because it is the right thing to do. I mean, if you don't literally jump at an opportunity to do something good when you know it's the right thing to do...then aren't you doing bad? ~ Trabue Gentry
