Why Isn’t This Kind of Information Made Public?

As a smoker, Ive had rights taken away from me because smoking “might” cause lung cancer or emphisima but its health benefits (listed in linked artical) are rarely ever spoken of. It has had some press about how smoking may protect against Parkinsons Disease and Altzheimers, so why wouldnt the government and FDA want everyone to know this as well as all the other benefits? Personally, to me lung cancer isn’t nearly as scary as Altzheimers, and I should be able to choose to protect myself against it without being shunned by the rest of the country.

My personal opinion is that people die quicker from cancer than they do from Parkinsons and Althiemers and the FDA would rather you have these diseases so you can pay much more money for treatment. Why else would the public not be made aware of these findings?
I asked the artical be READ before answering.. THESE studies were done on Smokers vs non-smokers not “nicotine suppliments” and as to the truely niave one… getting cancer from smoking is not a definite, as Im sure you know a lot of old people that smoke and don’t have cancer as everyone else does. Most people die horribly so really your answer is lame.
