My post destroys the world
Imagine if this little fact were to leak out; smoking slims you down and quitting it, turns you back into a tubby, how many aspiring anorexic women would be puffing away! Not only that, many fat self conscious men and women will indulge in this habit. My post would ruin millions of lives with carcinogenic tragedies and burdens of medical bills, increase sales of tobacco products, which would in turn increase demand for tobacco, jacking up the price of the crop, resulting in increase in revenue of tobacco farmers. Seeing planting tobacco would be a more lucrative cash crop, other farmers will ditch rice/wheat/barley/maize cultivation and zoom straight into tobacco farming. Unfortunately, this would decrease the supply of available staple food, jacking up the price of that as well. The poor would find it more difficult to get a full meal, resulting in increased cases of malnutrition and worsening famine all around. The price increase in staple food will bring about an inflation, and people will start hoarding food, fearing insufficiency. Supermarkets will be emptied, queues will form to buy food, and very soon money would worth lesser and lesser. All this will spiral into madness. governments would discharge its reserve grains into the market, and call for rationing but to no avail. Disenchanted citizens frustrated by the constant lack of food will protest, demonstrate, loot and pillage whatever establishments still standing. Cities will smoulder from anarchy and molotov cocktails. Charred cars will be left uncleared on the roads. Economy grinds to a stand still. Crime, paranoia and hoplessness will seep into every crevice of the remaining civilisation. Some governments will impose a state of emergency, some governments will be toppled by people who are sick of diplomatic moderate leaders and elect radical hardliners in its stead. Some governments will unite the people with fear, and look for a minority race to pile their blames on. Countries go into wars to usurp each others' rapidly depleting resources. Very soon, countries across the world will take sides. World War breaks out. One side would emerge victorious. Borders and boundaries of countries will change. Ccountries belonging to the fallen side surrender their land and resources. Countries will disappear, or be split. The people slowly regain their senses and reality, they will work to rebuild their life and country. But it will never be the same again.
The very world you know of will disintegrate because of my post. Man, I am destructive.
On a sidenote, I had a great japanese buffet dinner with her to celebrate my accomplishment of staying a full six months in a relationship. I pat myself on the back.
