Search Results: differences between people

Why would anyone think of people who do something like this as good people?

In case it's just not obvious, yes, I mean January 6th rioters that were not peaceful. It's one thing to just not like how something goes, but it's literally just ridiculous to legitimately support participation in something that bad and ridiculous and think there is nothing wrong with it. These same people have a problem with people crossing the border illegally.. its like they just make up any excuse to make themselves seem like they are in the right.

This is the difference between maga and traditional republicans. I don't band wagon, and I hope you don't either

1st, Can we MAKE someone quit? What sin tax percentage is it going to take to make them quit or are subsidies for tobacco farmers the real problem? Tobacco use is linked to HALF A MILLION deaths annually in the US alone.

Are people who can't quit "weak"?

FYI: smoking cessation products and programs are subsidized under MANY health insurance plans in the U. S. Almost all health insurance plans cover tobacco cessation treatments. Additionally, "Pay to Quit" direct cash programs have been shown to improve cessation rates among socioeconomically disadvantaged adults.

Is it the (declining) social acceptability of cigarettes that's the problem? FYI: Smokers, if you wanna get laid quit NOW! A Match. com survey revealed:
• 57% of survey respondents said they would NEVER date a smoker
• 89% of respondents preferred not to date a smoker
• 56% of women surveyed would NEVER date a smoker
• 46% of men would NEVER date a smoker

Currently in the USA, the FEDERAL tax is $1.01 per 20 pack of cigs. The lowest STATE tobacco tax in the USA is in Missouri, at $0.17 per pack of cigs. NY is $5.35 per pack. Accordingly, the average price of a pack of cigs in Missouri is $6.11, while in NY it is $11.96.

Profitability varies, as an example, in 2018, Imperial Brands reported a profit margin of 46%. Retailers, however, often experience low profit margins, typically between 4-6%.

Is all of this for nothing because of the rise of vaping?

E-cigarette products can have markups as high as 400% and HAVE NO federal taxes. State taxes vary from 95% of the product to a.05¢ nickel per product. Worldwide smoking trends are declining, though the number of smokers remains high. As of 2020, 22% of the world
used tobacco w/ significant gender differences: 37% of men & 8% of women smoked. Smoking prevalence has decreased by 27% for men and 38% for women since 1990.

Dare I ask about your views if you see a pregnant woman smoking? 😳

The practice comes from traditional Chinese medicine. Scientific studies have confirmed its effectiveness for SOME conditions & people. Acupuncture is mainly a supplemental therapy.

The research on acupuncture shows that it is effective at rates higher than a placebo with most patients stating the received SOME relief from chronic pain or GI issues.

Some patients reported that their anxiety or depression is reduced as it gives time for contemplation, mediation as well as the acupuncture itself.

Acupuncture, when done hygienically and by a professional has almost NO negatives other than a tiny bit of blood occasionally.

In a meta-analysis published just a few years ago, researchers looked at all the accumulated randomized controlled trials examining how acupuncture fared in treating people with chronic pain. They found that not only did acupuncture work better than no-acupuncture control groups, but there were also significant differences between acupuncture and sham acupuncture. This suggests that not all of the benefits are placebo effects.

Unless as a guy or girl if you’re non white but you’re insanely attractive for your ethnicity will you get any kind of recognition.

Even non whites are guilty of this by lusting after whites so much.

The difference between being a white 8/10 and a non white 8/10 is monumental.

I hate the world 🌎🤬
