She doesn’t say anything wrong but she misses two very important additional similarities: (1) ubiquitous marketing and a “hook ’em while they’re young” mentality and (2) a voracious lobby. This worries me. However, cigarettes did (do?) have these going for them as well but still managed to become victim to one of the most successful American public health campaigns in history. This gives me hope.
