Opinions and review about the movie - "Thank You for Smoking"

This film mainly focuses on the tobacco industry which is heavily under fire from the general public. In this film, the public demands a reduce or complete close down of the tobacco industry hoping to end the controversial smoking issue. This includes the hazards of smoking. However, Nick Naylor, who is the Vice President of and the chief spokesman for the Academy of the Tobacco Studies, stands up for the tobacco industry's side. Here he indirectly fights in the name of liberty and freedom for smokers. He raises logical reasons for why smoking should not be banned and adresses other hazards should be concerned of too rather than focusing on smoking only. For instance, he points out that cholesterol is one of the main killers in USA and he denounces one of the Senators for having a cheese production facilities in his farms. This simply goes against the health care of citizens and Senators should protect the population from harm, according to the rules and regulation. As a conclusion from this story, we should not banned other sectors while we are doing harm to ourself too because it looks like we are contradicting ourselves. The story suggests that we should maintain freedom and liberty to the people and let them do whatever they want as long as they do not break the laws.
