Thank you, Rick and Uncle. I thought this was going to be a boring post. Let's take some of the items one at a time: As for cigarettes only "recently" having a warning label, so what? My GREAT grandfather who was born in the 1890's called cigarettes Coffin Nails since he was a kid. Was that because they looked like coffin nails? Or was it because any sane person realizes that burning an item and intentionally concentrating and inhaling the smoke can not possibly be good for you? As for the addictive ingredients, Unclebill, this is NOT like putting cancer causing things into milk. Phillip morris did not put foreign things into cigarettes with the sole intent of causing cancer and killing their customers. The ingredients themselves are not addictive, they merely intensify the nicotine effect, making THAT item more addictive. In other words, the added items "enhance" the effect that the smoker is looking for to begin with. The fact that these ingredients also cause adverse effects needs to be addressed. But NOBODY made this loser smoke. Nobody forced him. Cripes, he is an alcoholic and a heroin junkie. He's WEAK. Both my parents smoked until I was in my teens. My mom still misses them, my dad doesn't. People are different, but they CAN quit. Rick, YOU quit even though it was tough. Sueing a corporation because of your own weakness shifts the blame. That's what the Liberals bring to the table in this issue. IMHO.
