The Anti-Tobacco Movement

Post by Mike Messer »

My impression about "The Anti-Tobacco Movement" is similar to my take on a lot of things engineered by this corporate-political government-business establishment.

1. Create an issue.
2. Sell it to the public.
3. Use it as an excuse to tax and profit on the public.

To me it is not a health issue. It is just another excuse to take money from the working people for nothing, by the month, by the minute, or in this case, by the pack or by the pound.
In effect to control and virtually enslave the working people by taking back what they are paid for working, and then to use that money to make an elitist class of people rich.
