I really don't understand why people are so angry and upset at tobacco companies, because in all respects it is just like any other company or industry making a product, advertising it in magazines or billboards to the public so that it appeals to them and then they could go and buy it for themselves. People don't have to buy it everyone has a brain you know, everyone has the ability to decide for themselves weather or not to buy tobacco products especially teens who have been warned and told of the dangers they possess. If they choose to go out and start using these products it is totally their decision and is not the fault of the industries. The industry is just an organized group trying to make as much money as possible like all others.
People for years have been trying to ban the sale of tobacco without much success and keep spending money on worthless commercials like "the truth" which not only advertise the harm of tobacco which everyone knows about but also the advertisement of tobacco itself which keeps making itself a more appealing product to kids and teens. Just like the cigarette commercials that used to air years ago these commercials "the truth" have taken their place and is already creating new smokers.
In my opinion i applaud the industry for surviving all these pressures as an industry not as a harmful product producer which is still going strong even though taxes have increased in the sale of their products.
