Safer smokes? How?
Lewis DiuguidSo Philip Morris International plans to sell low health risk cigarettes by 2017 that will be safer for people to smoke.
And the company plans to use existing labels such as the Marlboro brand? How is a safe cigarette possible? And if it is, why hasn’t the cigarette manufacturing giant done it before now?
It took centuries before companies involved with tobacco sales fessed up to producing cancer causing products. Even after they did with warning labels going on packages of cigarettes and ads being removed from television, they still managed to entice new generations to puff away and chew tobacco.
The “safe cigarette product” sounds like a new ploy from a company that has a long history of saying trust us, when thinking folks should actually run the other way.

11 months agoI know of no one born in the last 50 years that thought smoking was safe with no health risks. I also know of no one that feels that they were enticed by a cigarette company to smoke.
Most smokers smoke because they like it. They become victims when there is money to be had,
