[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 50416"] "Buyer pointed out that Waxman's bill is [b]supported by the nation's largest tobacco company[/b], [b]Marlboro maker Philip Morris USA[/b]. Officials at rival tobacco companies contend the Waxman bill could cement Philip Morris' market advantage. Lorillard Tobacco Co. said in a statement that among other problems, Waxman's bill "leads to an [b]industry monopoly[/b] by locking in the huge market share of our largest competitor while eliminating our ability to communicate with our adult smokers." I don't think this is the definition of socalism JP. My impression is that it's yet another example of more unregulated big businesses with deep pockets & highly paid professional lobbiest getting their tentacles anywhere they can. [/QUOTE]
