Life After Cigarettes | Where Will Big Government Go Next? | Juspam!
By a 3 to 1 margin, the House of Representatives today approved a bill passed by the Senate yesterday that gives the federal government sweeping new powers to regulate tobacco.
So what does this mean for the tobacco industry? This is a question many smokers and nonsmokers alike are are starting to ask themselves. With increased regulation comes increased control. That means tobacco companies can be told how and where they can advertise, and even what type of brands are acceptable. For instance, menthol cigarettes may become a thing of the past due to their misleading "flavor".
These are just a few examples of the government dictating private businesses for the greater good of society.
