Smokers are dishonest!
A lot of writings have appeared in the newspapers about the bad effect of smoking. The government has also passed an anti-smoking law, which is laudable indeed. But smokers are not paying heed to this. I have invented a theory that smokers are dishonest (with very rare exceptions). Aren't they? A smoker delves into the bad habit during his very adolescent days when he has no source of income. So a smoker has to earn the money somehow or the other.
When he becomes an adult and gets a job, he has to be dishonest to meet the extra expenditures that smoking invariably entails. So I want to say that a non-smoker may be honest or dishonest, but a smoker is very likely to be dishonest.
What do smokers have to say on this matter? I don't think they can easily refute what I believe.
