Ah, the "Hollow Earth" conspiracy theory.



I'll bet that gets the "Flat Earthers" panties in a bunch. :roll:
It kind of makes sense. Science holds that, at one point, we were a subterranean and possibly nocturnal species, due to predators. They’re advanced because they’ve remained underground and haven’t caught the Stupid.

Our biggest mistake as a human race is believing those who would tell us that our lives would improve if we let them tell us what to do.

this race needs a benevolent dictator. we're stupid, willful, mean spirited, ignorant, and lazy. as a race. we NEED someone to give us a swift kick in the ass. we need someone to lead us with a unified vision. people in general need someone to stop them from being fucking morons.
it seems obvious we're incapable of doing fuck all about fuck all...we apparently need a nanny to hold our hands and tell us what we should and shouldn't put in our mouths

are you sure? look at the world. we're obviously incapable of managing our own environment. we ignore social problems and allow people with money to make policy. i don't see us waking up and flying right anytime soon.
Yes I'm sure. I do not wish to trade "apparently and probably" fucked for "definitely and irreversibly" fucked. This sounds like an instance where the cure can be way worse than the disease.

Shorter life doesn't equate to money savings. Smoking causes a lot of health problems. Smokers can lives years with copd and other illness before death.

Here is a bit of info.

There was a study in one of the small Scandinavian countries where smoking saved $4B a year. Retirement payments are not large, but there is a lot of them that go out every month. I would imagine our savings are quite a bit larger. But maybe not. We do pay a lot for health care.
