Cigarettes, Smokers, and Smoking
Smoking is a bad habit that is very hard to break. Smokers are everywhere. Many people just to socialize, but many others are too addicted to quit.
A cigarette is like a toxin hypermarket. You can find many kinds of toxin in it : acetone, carbon monoxide, tar, arsenic ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, and toluene. The tar it self contains more than 43 substances that can causes cancer. Scientist say that when we are smoking, we put more than 4.000 kinds of toxic materials into our body.
However, many smokers believe that a cigarette with low tar is less dangerous. And so is filtered cigarette. But the problem is one cigarette is never enough for addicted smokers.
Another myth about smoking is that it cannot only make them awake but also raise their inspiration. This is contrary to the findings of a research in California which show that smoker’s ability to think is lower than that of non-smokers.
Smoking is indeed a serious social problem in our country. The government keeps reminding that smoking is dangerous, not only for smokers themselves, but also for other people in the surroundings (passive smokers). But the warnings do not seem to get any response.

a good article
there's a problem in our country since we know that there are a lot of cigarrete companies in Indonesia. It means that it takes many people to be their employees, so although the smokers know what actually the bad impact of smoking they still do that thing,,because they are addicted...
and if we wanna close those company, it will be really dangereous. because it means that there will be many jobless in our country. increase the number of jobless...so confusing :D
