Ultra Cancer

This has nothing to do with today's world situation or anything important other than it occurred recently. A friend was smoking ultra light cigarettes and claimed it was healthier. Which got me to thinking how can that be? The world is told light or ultra light cigarettes are better for you. Which may delay the consequences but do not eliminate or reduce the consequences of smoking. Have you ever seen anyone who has light or ultra cancer? Smoking light cigarettes gives you cancer as does regular cigarettes. So whats with the light cigarettes?

Its the whole marketing gimmick. The cigarette companies know their product is going to kill you, but they decide we should respond by introducing the light version. This doesn't solve the health problems it only solves the marketing problem.

Its like those who drink diet soda. If you care about health and believe soda's are bad then you should eliminate sodas from your diet instead of switching to diet. Each new product will bring its own perils. Me, I drink real sodas, smoke full cigarettes and eat donuts. However everything in moderation.

The secret was told to me by my grandfather, moderation is the key to life. It makes life much more enjoyable.
