Which look at that, Juul is NOT banned because they are owned by the aforementioned companies.

- dehrmann 7y agoIt's worth mentioning that Altria was previously known as Phillip Morris. The Phillip Morris you're referencing is Phillip Morris International. It was split off from Altria in 2008. So as far as egregious mergers go, this isn't it. This is getting the band back together.
