What does a cigarette actually do that is, in any way, beneficial to society? I mean really beneficial.

It makes me feel good. Read an interesting article about ten years ago about the benefits of smoking. And there ARE some. One (and this is proven, though infrequently publicized) is that it reduces one's risk of Alzheimer's. Which in my view is a hell of a lot worse than lung cancer or a heart attack.
