The Smoking Lamp Is....

WOW.

I never thought I'd live to see the day that the Pentagon would recommend to the Secretary of Defense that he ban wars because of the toll it takes on the health of enlisted US military personnel, and the cost incurred to treat those harmed in war!

WHOOO HOOOO. NO MORE WAR!

Celebrate!

Oh fuck...

I made a mistake.

It's not war causing all the extra harm and expense...

The real culprit in added costs to the VA hospitals and Pentagon funding is cigarettes.

Yeah, so lets ban smoking for military personnel and the sale of tobacco on military bases.

But lets keep sending them to war, because it's actually cigarettes that are HELL... war is a walk in the park on a nice spring day.

clearly they need to visit a VA hospital. Not for nothin, but they aint exactly John Hopkins. If the Docs dont kill you, or give you hep C or worse, the wait will do you in.
