You know, the politicians and the advocates don't really want you to quit smoking. They've predicated much of the newer entitlements on your smoking more.

Exactly. And that's precisely the reason I'm quitting. The bloodsucking redistributionists can fund their ever increasing "entitlement" programs with someone else's dinero, not mine.
