Smoking Aloud

The current anti-smoking campaign
is not about children or public health ...

It is all about YOUR MONEY... They want it!


Anti-Smoking Hysteria

Today's Anti-Smoking Hysteria is no haphazard accidental development. In fact, it has been deliberately engineered, funded, and promoted by powerful economic interests that stand to make $tillions by making you and other smokers suffer hugely unfair punitive taxation and higher insurance premiums.

The interests behind the recent hysteria are known today as the Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex. They are the most powerful economic force on earth after the Military Industrial Complex and, perhaps, Big Oil. It includes the drug manufactures, chemical manufacturers, insurance industry, and health care industry.

This fascist profit driven force has poured hundreds of millions of dollars into bogus junk science, manipulative advertising, and international anti-smoking campaigns. They're doing this, of course, because they stand to make huge profits and even larger amounts in the lucrative smoking cessation business, regulatory, compliance and enforcement activities, and health care costs.

And, they have a willing partner with the many bought off representatives in Congress (many who are ex-pharmaceutical industrial complex executives) who stand to extract higher taxes and fees to support their big government programs.

Have we been had by them? You bet we have!

Deception #1: PUBLIC HEALTH.

Central to any socialist movement is the politics of division and the idea that whatever a bureaucracy does is for the "public good." Hence, we have seen the rise of phrases like, "health care crisis," "pediatric crisis," and some of their most persuasive rhetoric, "it's for the children," and "it's the right thing to do."

Joseph Goebbels"The great masses of people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one. Especially if it is repeated over and over." - Adolph Hitler

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it." - Joseph Goebbels

Today, a growing number of dumbed down, uninformed and simple minded Americans have bought into the lies.

There may be a health care crisis, but not the kind these Fascists are wanting you to believe.

  • Rising health care costs and the drain on Medicare is not caused by smokers... it's caused by the explosion of an AIDS epidemic among the homosexual and intravenous drug user community. In the US, AIDS is the number one killer of African American men ages 25 and 44 and the second leading cause of death for black women of that age group. (US Department of Health and Human Services 10/28/98)
  • Insurance rates aren't skyrocketing because of health care costs for smokers... it's caused by out of control health care costs of homosexual domestic partners with AIDS. Major corporation after corporation has begun extending health care coverage to homosexual couples in the battle against AIDS.

With a contrived crisis as its centerpiece, government and social propagandists have sprung into action with elaborate public relations (propaganda) campaigns whipping the public into a frightened frenzy where they willingly and blindly submit themselves to a money and power hungry cadre of statists.

John McCainBoth Democrats and Republicans in Congress have passed sham legislation that does nothing for public health, does not address their stated goals of reducing teen smoking, but rather nationalizes health care, raises taxes on the middle-class and extends the size and authority of government over private lives.

What's been their rationale supporting their grab for money and power?

Fear, fear, and more distorted fear!

It's the same process the govenment used in an earlier time with their "Reefer Madness" propaganda campaign. Like then, nearly all the recent tobacco legislation has been based on bogus and discredited research.

Reefer Madness In the '60's they told us that taking a toke off that marijuana cigarette turned people into sex crazed murderers. Today they tell us that people who light up in public and puff on their cigarettes not only put themselves at risk but also is causing cancer in those non-smokers around them.

Well, the fact is that marijuana smokers were not transformed into sex crazed killers in the 1960's and passive or secondhand smoke is not causing cancer in anybody today.

So, why are we being told these lies?

Read on and I'll try to explain it to you.

The current propaganda campaign being waged against the tobacco industry amounts to extortion by the U.S. government, trial lawyers, insurance companies, and many others in the health related professions. They are simply coercing your money from you through the spreading of fear and in some cases lying to you in exchange for higher taxes, huge legal fees, higher insurance premiums, and higher medical fees.

Second Hand Smoke The greedy tax-and-spend statists who want to control you and take more of your money are absorbed in convincing you that because of a contrived health problem associated with cigarette smoking and second hand smoke you should willingly give them your money.

To bolster their tax-and-spend motives, they fabricated yet another "crisis" in America -- a "health care crisis" and say tax increases are necessary "to protect the children." What money they don't get from tax increases and fees, they plan to get through litigation.

Anti-smoking liberals have for years siphoned billions of tax dollars, via Federal and State Grant Money, the ASSIST and IMPACT programs are a primary source, and diverted charitable contribution dollars to their coffers under the guise of improving health and saving children.

Government funding for anti-smoking groups with taxpayer funds, or any other social group with "an ax to grind", is nothing more than politicians buying votes and a way to circumvent the laws that prohibit Government employees from using public funds to promote their own social agenda.


Folks, it has nothing to do with children or health
     ... it's about your money!


Remember the saying, "Follow the Money"? The anti smoking industry is a multi-billion dollar a year industry, a real money maker. I ask you, would these people lie in order to make more money? I think the answer is obvious.
