All-Powerful Big Tobacco
Don Boudreaux
Today's Washington Post reports that
The U.S. government yesterday accused the nation's largest tobacco companies of conspiring over the past 50 years to deceive the public about the proven dangers of smoking to protect billions of dollars in profits the industry earned from cigarette sales.
Must be the most inept and ineffective half-century-long conspiracy in human history.
