But if the governments of the world were honestly concerned about the welfare of their people, you’d think they’d conduct aggressive anti-smoking campaigns. Far from it! The tobacco industry is allowed to spend huge sums on advertising. Its advertising is as crafty(诡计多端的)as it is dishonest. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lungs early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always show strong, even clean-shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open-air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness. What nonsense!
For a start, governments could begin by banning all cigarette and tobacco advertising and should then conduct anti-smoking advertising campaigns of their own. Smoking should be banned in all public places like theatres, cinemas and restaurants. Great efforts should be made to inform young people especially of the consequences of taking up the habit. A horrific warning and a picture of a death’s head should be included in every packet of cigarettes that is sold.
As individuals, we are certainly weak, but if governments acted honestly and courageously, they could protect us from ourselves.
