" It's nothing but a money grab"
So the tobacco suit was also a money grab? OK. I like money grabs which hold bad guys accountable. A master climate settlement would reduce smoking auto exhausts and smokestacks in the US, especially for the youth.
The Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) - NAAG
The MSA’s purpose is to reduce smoking in the U.S., especially in youth, which is achieved through:
- Raising the cost of cigarettes by imposing payment obligations on the tobacco companies party to the MSA.
- Restricting tobacco advertising, marketing, and promotions, including:
- Prohibiting tobacco companies from taking any action to target youth in the advertising, promotion or marketing of tobacco products.
- Banning the use of cartoons in advertising, promotions, packaging, or labeling of tobacco products.
- Prohibiting tobacco companies from distributing merchandise bearing the brand name of tobacco products.
- Banning payments to promote tobacco products in media, such as movies, televisions shows, theater, music, and video games.
- Prohibiting tobacco brand name sponsorship of events with a significant youth audience or team sports.
- Eliminating tobacco company practices that obscure tobacco’s health risks.
- Providing money for the Settling States that states may choose to use to fund smoking prevention programs.
- Establishing and funding the Truth Initiative, an organization “dedicated to achieving a culture where all youth and young adults reject tobacco.”
