Right now, smokers die earlier. In theory, despite the treatments for lung cancer, the earlier death means that overall it is cheaper to the “system.” A person dying under 65 means no social security payouts, etc.
Yes, Prime Minister noted that cigarette related deaths saved the country significant amounts overall.
