Push-Back Ballot
Now here is another view...
Some people say that Philip Morris cannot be trusted. The company lied in the
past and continues to deceive us by pretending to be responsible and concerned
about youth smoking. Philip Morris is still America's largest tobacco company.
Furthermore, Philip Morris will continue to build its overseas tobacco business,
and hook a new generation of kids on smoking.
They also say that Philip Morris knew the facts about nicotine being addictive
and tobacco causing cancer for decades and hid those facts from smokers and
the government. They say that Philip Morris only promises to change when it is
forced to, and that no matter what it says, Philip Morris will always behave like
a tobacco company, seeking to maximize its profits by marketing to kids while
denying the dangers of its most profitable product.
