Last I checked everyone has known for years and years that smoking is bad for you as is corn syrup. You have choices in life to make, it's called personal responsibility.


That's right. There's nothing wrong with the products or people making their own choices but that's not what I was talking about.

What I was talking about is PR campaigns designed to promote the message that tobacco, corn syrup, and mercury "really aren't that bad for you," and run through non-profits set up by Washington lobbyists so that the people funding the PR campaigns can remain anonymous.

And the irony that the main talking points used by those same Washington lobbyists to attack BHA is the source of their funding. In other words, pot, meet kettle.


Knew/know what you are talking about. My comment still holds. I could give two if anyone choices to smoke, consume whatever, not wear seat belts or helmets. We all know, it's a choice, and you pay the consequences! Lobbying isn't going away, Gun rights, hunting rights, and the Second Amendment IS! They (anti's) have time, money, and organization, we have very little of those. Think I am Wrong?
