Ed: TIm I am curious, are you the only pastor in ABC-USA who is aboard on this campaign, that is what the "full story" that Haruo linked to seems to indicate. That would be a real disappointment.
On the other hand, for sake of discussion; While I do not oppose such legislation, I do question whether or not it can deliver what it seems to promise. I also wonder with the belt tightening in government, if this is the best time time to burden the FDA with a greater work load? And what impact might probable lay offs in the tobacco industry have on the economy, particurly in areas of the Southeast such as, Raleigh Durham, Winston Salem and Louisville?
BTW, I quit smoking about 7 years ago and my stock holdings include no tobacco related companies, nor am I related to any one at any level of the industry any longer.
