Good point, and one more reason why tobacco executives should all be
rounded up and killed in the slowest most painful way possible. (Sorry,
just getting a tad emotional here.) The whole concept of 'Damn! people
here in the U.S. seem to have finally noticed that our product is
killing them and now they've gone and started to DO something about it.
I guess we'll just have to pack up and start selling it to people in
Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union and Southeast Asia where they
haven't realized it yet or whose governments don't have enough backbone
yet to stand up to us.' is one of the most sickening and immoral things
happening in business right now.
