We've been teaching kids to "question authority" for decades, and now we are surprised that they are questioning government-sponsored propaganda?

Billions of dollars spent to "twist and control the minds of our youth."

1. Canada has had a ban on advertising for the last 15-20 years....... doesn't change much of anything.

2.The claim of not having had enough time for solid research......... when did the ANTIS ever do solid research. ?

3.Money or the lack thereof has little to do with whether teens smoke or not, they are the ones with money and no fincial responsibility...... just look at whom the advertisers are aiming at, be it clothes, music or anything else.

This is just another excuse for more taxes.

A great letter written by Dan Haas of Duluth:

Taget Market a Waste

[Max McGarrity]

Target Market, Schmarget Market. What's far better is 15-year-old Matt Hannula's ANTI-Target Market. He's got it going on!

By the way, young Matt doesn't smoke and doesn't think anyone should, but he understands--unlike everyone from Jesse Ventura on down--that this is not about smoking. It's about freedom.
