True, but the want of cigarettes is much lower than recreational drugs. One of the reasons they're still so popular is because they're legal and easy to get.

I don't smoke and never have, but I can't imagine anyone starting smoking in order to get some effect like with marijuana.

Yet, the addiction of cigarettes is much more powerful than non narcotic drugs & every day new people are starting smoking.
