Drugs are the real killers of society.

tobacco

Tobacco kills more people and cost the country more money than alcohol does. But they are both dangerous drugs.

It is false that tobacco is more
dangerous than drugs or alcohol
The CDC inflates the deaths from tobacco, and
ignores the fact that tobacco is not an intoxicant,
and alcohol and drugs are.

Alcohol's addiction is more devastating, but I'd be interested in seeing the statistics regarding the monetary damage to society.

They're both equally bad, but alcohol might be a tad bit worse, in my opinion. After all, I've never seen someone smoke a cigarette, climb in a car and then be so inebriated by the smoke they wrapped their car around a light pole.

I'm not sure. I drank very little for almost 10 years and didn't smoke at all. Over the last 6 months I started both again and I think my body might be getting addicted to both...

Over excess of alcohol is not safe but smoking is a killer. I find beer drinkers become the worst alcoholics. It is just my observation, but cheap beer is not healthy. Also high priced, highly filtered quality liquor in mixed drinks is far less dangerous then cheap booze, many people drink straight up. Gin is very bad. American cigarettes are the worst.

The World Health Organization estimated that tobacco causes 5.4 million deaths every year.
A global study found that Alcohol deaths averaged 300 to 500 thousand deaths a year.
You do the math.

It is all the chemicals put into American cigarettes. I don't smoke anymore, not for 30 years, but did smoke Dunhill Menthol.

If you're speaking about American Cigarettes, I'm judging by many years ago smoking Dunhill Menthol Cigarettes. I cannot stand the taste in my mouth from any American cigarettes. Lousy, stale tobacco, more added chemicals. I have always found European and English quality much much better then most American made products.

I am not a smoker, so I have no idea what any of them taste like. All I know is that I refuse to kiss anyone who smokes. They taste and smell disgusting.

4% of 2011 deaths were alcohol related. Looked for cancer stats, but couldn't find them in the mire.
