It might not affect their lives at all for a while, even though they smoke 24/7. Still, I think it's abuse to smoke anything, 24/7. Eating cheeseburgers all day long - abuse. Drinking Mountain Dew all day long - abuse. Etc.
But, that's why we are all offering our different opinions - many different ways of looking at it. I still think if you're seemingly performing just fine every day, and you're working your way through an ounce every couple of days, it's abuse...

I do agree, but I could only imagine people that go their whole lives doing that stuff. I've seen families come in and buy a lot of Pop, and they have 4 kids and not one person in the family is fat. They might not be able to see physical signs of their harming, but we all know what it is doing to their bodies. The same fluids in your brain are found in your large intestine. The things you eat effect the way you think. It's been proven in legitimate studies.
So basically, any one can live with unhealthy habits. It's a personal decision weather they want to to that to their body. Quite unfortunately there are MANY other subjects that can play into this. Anything from societies "correct" ways of doing things. Over-population has effected society in more ways than ever. We are getting fast food, there's so many people and if every one has a vote, there's most likely going to be two sides or MORE to opinions on all these different subject. Personally, I keep my shit out of politics. That's just me, I know many people would beg to differ.
