Oh now.We now have 350,000 Covid deaths reported in the USA. During the same time period, 480,000 Americans died from tobacco use.
What sources did you use to get those numbers?
Interesting read. To their credit, they cited their sources, but it just reads like a hit piece on the tobacco industry using false equivalency. Involuntarily contracting covid and voluntarily using a product that has well known and well documented harmful side effects are not equivalent.Tobacco Killed More Americans than COVID-19 in 2020: Does it Warrant Corporate Death Penalty? - American Security Today
In the worst pandemic in more than a century, COVID-19 killed less than 350,000 Americans. Quietly however, the tobacco industry killed more Americans in the same year.

Not equivalent, I'll agree.Interesting read. To their credit, they cited their sources, but it just reads like a hit piece on the tobacco industry using false equivalency.

The tobacco industry killed them. Because they forced all those people to smoke. Like people don't have freedom of choice.Tobacco Killed More Americans than COVID-19 in 2020: Does it Warrant Corporate Death Penalty? - American Security Today

You gotta tax it, so you can pay for all the subsidies paid to tobacco farmers, and all the public service announcements telling people how harmful tobacco is, and all the Medicare payments for the treatment of lung cancer and emphasema patients. Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it?Tax tobacco.
Makes a fella wonder, if the government could make money off the Rona, would the response be different?
You can't have too manyAnother Covid thread? Really?
and more cb
Must of been the menthal cigs.We now have 350,000 Covid deaths reported in the USA. During the same time period, 480,000 Americans died from tobacco use.
If you do not pay Doctors and Hospitals to report deaths as "from influenza" they of course will not report any. As always follow the money.Meanwhile, influenza deaths are down to zero.
When we all had to line up for the flu shot this year I was temped to say "hey I thought we cursed influenza, why do we need the shot now? My humor would not have been well received. They are really pushing the 3 shot for the china flu now. Putting on a real dog and pony show to get us to take it. I suspect it will not be long before it will no longer be an ask.I know right. At least we don't have the flu anymore? It will only take more than 2 years to slow the curve! Or was it 2 weeks? I'm sooo confused!
