Tobacco use remains the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States.
Lots more men than women. Looks as if half of smokers quit after age 65. An undergrad degree cuts smoking in half, and a graduate degree cuts that percentage by another half.
Also, lots more smokers in the middle of the country than on the coasts. Those suffering from psychological stress are at 48%, the same figure as earlier studies I recall from 30 years ago. Self-medicating. More.
