It's easy to say that but look at the reduction in smoking over the last 20 years... it was unimaginable that the government would crack down and actively reduce smoking and cigarette accessibility and advertising but it did once the magnitude of the harm was recognized and accepted.
- betwixthewires 5y agoI hope you're right, I admire your optimism. I don't think cigarettes are comparable to agriculture products and plastics and other chemicals because all of those things serve other purposes, they have economic uses. It's one thing to crack down on something that all it does is fleece people til they die painfully from it, it's another thing entirely to retool material production around a health concern.
