The government isn't gonna touch the tobacco industry now for yet another reason -- if they take a tough stand against MO et al, they risk sending the industry out of business, and they will be adding another 200,000 or 300,000 people to the jobless line... Not a good idea during times like this <g> Maybe that is the reason why the hyenas that were circling the tobacco companies have turned their attention to getting marijuana legalized now! ;-) I think MO will continue to be a fabulous investment over the next 3-5 years, especially as the interest rates are cut and MO's dividend yield starts looking fatter and fatter by comparison. Congratulations to all the diehard MO fans! Our time has only begun! The best days lie ahead!
