    I've only gone through two paragraphs, but I've italicized what I've corrected.

    I'll probably finish some more of it later.

    Sorry if I'm a bit overboard, by English Teacher wore off on me. lol

    The consequence is that the person will likely be addicted to the cigarettes and will live their life with something they do not really need. (what won’t they really need?)

    What I meant by that SK was you say they will loive their life with something they don't need.

    If I were you I would make it like this.

    The consequence is that the person will likely be addicted to the cigarettes and will live their life with something they do not really need, cigarettes.

    Just my suggestion though.

    The survey has also shown people who never smoked a cigarette or who just did not like it, but those were only about ??? only about what?
    OK OK that is it rofl...now all of ya three has mentioned this one and ill tell you why it is like this...
    It was 1AM today when i did it and didnt feel like counting the surveys...hope question answered

    btw nice points hypronix but how can i change this one...
    The result is that the person will likely be addicted to the cigarettes and will live their life with something they do not really need. (what won’t they really need?) (and for what – makes you argument somewhat stronger)

    Ok I kinda redid the first paragraph a little bit.

    A cigarette is the kind of thing which causes health problems even death among our societies, which are constantly perpetrated by tobacco companies. Many people begin smoking as teenagers and some later in life, but every smoker will face the same consequences no matter how many cigarettes the person has smoked. The consequence being that the person addicted to the cigarettes will live their life with something they do not really need, cigarettes. As we all know, cigarettes cause many problems for people; these problems include (list known problems)

    Next paragraph
    Somethink like that would work I think.

    See you say that we live with someting we don't need, yet you give us no evidence as to why we don't need it.

    Trust me on this. I've been through this to many times in college. lol
