You always thought that the leading cause of preventable death was stupidity – and there are certainly examples. But it's not. It's tobacco.
So what should be our stance as a nation on this most American of all products, once our largest cash crop and leafily adorning our greenbacks to this day?
To remain healthy, the tobacco industry needs to replace thousands of dead smokers each day with new children smokers. The last administration wasn't sympathetic. This administration is.
It is truly a grand time to be rich and powerful in America.
