If you are talking about daily consumption, I think that alcohol is worse because it's too hard on the liver, which eventually gives out- and it will give out, leading to toxic build up in the body that slowly destroys all the other organs.. Smoking will do damage, but it can take decades for the slightest damage to appear and major injury may never occur.. Major damage from daily alcohol consumption is a definite, while major damage from cigarette smoking does not happen to everyone..Health Question & Answer

That link summarizes one study......there are lots if you Google the words " costs alcohol tobacco"

If you combine ALL costs (not just how many ER visits, hospital days etc)......from health, social assistance, policing etc........alcohol comes out as "worse" than tobacco..

It just makes sense.. More people overall drink than smoke.. While smoking is associated with bad diseases like COPD and lung cancer, those things take many years to show up..

Alcohol can get you into bad trouble the first time you try it......say if you get drunk and drive into a telephone pole.. Alcoholism also tends to affect more of your friends and families and has significant social costs.. Alcoholics may live for many years with their disease, having frequent interaction with the health systems, law and order etc..

Alcohol is by far a much worse drug than tobacco, cocaine, heroin, crystal meth if you look at ALL costs..Health Question & Answer
