The average price in the US is $6-7 a pack.
In NYC, where I live, it's $13.
How do smokers afford a pack (or more) a day of these things?

Memetals are only relevant when apocalypse happen, yet, by then, food and shelter become the gold and silver and any attempt at selling these results in extremely low amounts of true resources, for their value is presumed to be solely present in peace times.
Memetals are a lie to prevent preppers pump, for with that comes true peace and peace isn't profitable to the true one percent.

It's a healthier habit.
Instead of destroying their lungs, they get their rock collection out, stack it, sort it, bury it, dig it up, etc.
Also they can make comfy YT vids showing off their collection, which even non-rock collectors will watch on occasion.

This is bullshit. Due to political correctness they omitted that third world countries smoke more, coincidentally they also have lower COVID mortality rates on paper because no testing. Also there is no causation, just correlation but I’m 99 sure that’s because of this

By skimping on nutritional food for their kids. You can afford cigs if you tell your kids to make too ramen for dinner.
