Are you talking about cigarette smoking?  'Cause I don't think there is such a thing as a smoker's rehab.  But I'm sure at your local hospital/community center/etc you can find classes to help quit smoking.

No smoking in bars or restaurants, and other places too.  I voted for Issue 5 and helped it pass.  I agree it is an excellent law.  Takes effect 30 days from passage.  \n\nFull text of the law here with all the details you are looking for:\n\nhttp://www.smartvoter.org/2006/11/07/oh/state/issue/5/\n\n~Kyle

Proven by every study out there rehab is cheaper by far!  Not only is the cost of one rehab cheaper the long-term costs are far cheaper.  When you think of how many people are in prison right now for crimes related to their addiction you see the base.  When they get out they are going to offend again because they are still addicts and have had nothing to curb that, no jail doesn't kill it drugs are previlent in jails and prisons too, so they tend to re-offend.  Rehab gives them the tools to get it under control and deal with it.  Yes it may take more than one rehab to work but it will eventually work!

A lot in the US! The exact amount depends on where you live, since states, counties, cities may have their own taxes.\n\nPoliticians love to increase these taxes, since smokers and Big Tobacco companies are politically unpopular.

A LONG TRAIL OF EVIDENCE LINKS CIGARETTE SMOKING TO LUNG CANCER\n\nAs someone who’s life has been touched by the tragic effects of cigarette smoking, I was saddened last week when the Supreme Court barred the FDA from regulating cigarettes. About 48 million adult Americans smoked cigarettes last year, according to the CDC. That’s one in four people, a fact that astonishes and alarms me. Why? Because this year an estimated 180,000 people will be diagnosed with lung cancer in the United States, and 90% of them will die within three years -- and 96% of these cancer victims are cigarette smokers.\n\n\nIs there a cause-and-effect connection between smoking cigarettes and lung cancer? Two years ago, I wrote my first columns for the Post Dispatch, explaining the scientific evidence that cigarette smoking causes lung cancer, and that cigarette smoking is addictive. If these two points are indeed true, then cigarettes , so much a part of American life, are in fact an addictive deadly drug! In the hope of encouraging readers to urge congress to act, I am reprinting these columns. In today’s column we will follow the trail of evidence that proves clearly that smoking causes cancer. In next week’s column I will examine the evidence that smoking tobacco is addictive.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPOINTING THE FINGER AT CIGARETTES\n\n\nThe long trail of evidence linking cigarettes to lung cancer has its beginnings right here in St. Louis, at Washington University’s School of Medicine. In 1948 a young first-year medical student, Ernst Wynder, witnessed an autopsy of a man who had died of lung cancer, and noted the lungs were blackened. Curious, he looked into the background of the patient. There was no obvious exposure to air pollution, but the man’s wife revealed he had smoked two packs of cigarettes a day for thirty years! Like a dog with a juicy bone, Wynder had found a puzzle that would occupy him much of his professional life, and despite much controversy, he never let go of it.\n\n\nOver the next two years, Wynder doggedly reviewed records to see if there were other cases linking cigarettes and lung cancer. He found that many lung cancer patients were smokers. Interviewing lung cancer patients and "control" patients with other cancers, far more cancer occurred among the smokers. Early in 1950 he published his results in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Comparing 649 lung cancer patients with 600 controls, he found lung cancer an incredible 40 times higher among smokers, with the risk of cancer increasing with the number of cigarettes smoked.\n\n\nLater that year, Richard Doll, a well known British scientist, reported an even more convincing finding linking smoking to lung cancer. Over a period of years, Doll had interviewed quite a large number of physicians, inquiring of each about their smoking habits -- then waited to see which ones developed lung cancer. Overwhelmingly, they were the smokers. Because it was not "after the fact", Doll’s test of the smoking causes cancer hypothesis was particularly rigorous and powerful. From that day forward, the scientific case linking smoking to lung cancer has been clear-cut.

I am a nonsmoker but I support smoking. Medical tests have shown an increase and that people are more likely but it has not been straight proven. As for the rest it is because we, as Americans, are too concerned with what is trendy. Right now it is trendy not to smoke and to jump on the "let's blame the smokers bandwagon". It's easy.

i'd say yes. in most of the world and in the US before the 60's, 50%+ of the population smoked. since there are more people outside of the US than in the US, I would say that there are more geniuses smoking than not.

Yes it works!  I was getting it 3 or 4 times a week at first.  In Nova Scotia it's a free service provided by our government.   I peetered down to once a week and then stopped going.  I had been smoke free for 6 months.  When I stopped going to acupuncture and some stresses at home occured the smoking started again.  I am just resuming the treatments...  hopefully it will work.  My doctor suggested Welbutrin as the best option but it's an anti-depressant and I really don't want to start taking drugs that might alter how I will feel.

Hi Rani, \n I think your onto a whole new concept of exercise. I've got to believe that there are millions of people who smoke and don't get the exercise they truly need. While we're at it let's get all those other people who drink and do drugs. Just think about it for a second, we can have A Boston Marathon with runners who have in one hand a cigarette, in the other a cocktail to wash down that ecstasy. What a concept Rani, you da man.
