Tobacco is grown, not manufactured. Typical (not all) cigarettes are manufactured using some of the industrial world's worst, most deadly substances, and therein lie many problems.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comBlogger7125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159645.post-63161543958972837422018-08-28T20:18:00.001-07:002018-08-28T20:18:07.700-07:00Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159645.post-44563917796465964492010-01-29T10:39:00.000-08:002010-08-31T18:03:26.141-07:00

The Public Comment period has ended, but the problems with this Act remain. The Food and Drug Administration has already outlawed openly-flavored cigarettes---though many other flavorings remain ignored.

Is the Problem About Natural Plants?...or Chemical Plants?
In April 2003, the US General Accounting Office (GAO) condemned lax government oversight of pesticide residues in cigarettes. http://www.gao.gov/atext/d03485.txt
If a problem there, search up "GAO tobacco pesticides".
That is, government officials who stand on their heads to show concern for health effects of “smoking” (of what, Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159645.post-1112657284979704062005-04-04T16:28:00.000-07:002010-01-29T11:15:36.023-08:00Cartoon Usage: Interested parties may contact j_jonik (at) yahoo (dot) com.

Just about any one of them can be helpful in undermining the bogus "war on tobacco" or "war on smokers". Bogus because the campaign is about protecting the cigarette industry, including all ingredients/contaminants suppliers, their advertisers, and all their insurers and investors...not to mention their friends in government positions.

If an official or other says that tobacco did this or that, the alarm bells must ring. NO studies of smoke from tobacco ITSELF have yet to be brought to court, legislatures, or establishment medical journals. No Public Interest has been shown to justify laws about Tobacco Smoke!
