Contrary to popular belief, cancer in the U.S. has not been "increasing exponentially" -- as a matter of fact, since American cancer diagnosis hit its all-time peak in the early 1990s -- with 1992 the "peak" year -- cancer diagnosis has decreased by roughly 20 percent. That's about 1 in 5 people that are not getting cancer that would have gotten cancer in the early 1990s. The increase in regulations in American food and notoriety regarding the detriments of too much fast food consumption has had a significant impact.
So the next time you hear someone say, "McDonald's sucks now! I miss the 80s and 90s where you could get an awesome burger for 50 cents and fill up on those!" -- you're underestimating how many carcinogens those people that lived on McBurgers in the 80s and 90s put into their body.

As a human being, yes. I believe that's the year he spent in Italy... and y'all know about those curvy pizza-eating Italian lovelies...
We got millions to quit smoking and pulled some things of the market. Of course it's going down.
Also I'm sure baby boomers scew the data
Depressionaries and Boomers are/were the most likely to smoke, by far. Back then, it was seen as sexy, attractive (particularly for "cultured" men), and good for your heart because it "relaxed" you.
Gen X = likely to have smoked as youth and then quit in their 30s when the anti-smoking promos became a huge thing. Gen Y and Millennials smoke by far the least, aside from the gangsta's and frat boys.
