[QUOTE="Doc Manhattan, post: 173511, member: 341"] It may be a "feel-good" law, but don't think for a second that the government would attempt to pass it without its silent partner: Philip Morris-Altria, America's biggest tobacco company, and the only one missing from the lawsuit named in the article. Once again, they're buddying up to tobacco regulators in exchange for being first to the market when the FDA grudgingly approves a reduced-harm tobacco product (and reaping some shiny "responsible company" publicity in the meantime.) I mention this every time we see troubling anti legislation, but only because Philip Morris has backed or refused to fight them all. :roll: For me, sadly, that means no more buying (PM-A) Middleton tobaccos like Prince Albert, and telling friends who smoke Marlboros the deal. If I'm going to show solidarity with cigarette smokers, I'd rather they not give their hard-earned dollars to a company that's shown such bad faith to its brand-loyal customers. [/QUOTE]
