I'm not at all apologetic for tobacco companies, and I don't know what I've said that would lead you to believe I was.

I'm afraid the facts, as laid out by the propaganda arm of big tobacco, aka the cancer council, state that the government turns a healthy profit from the sale and taxation of cigarettes. Why would this suprise you? And even more curiously, how does this simple truth equate to being a 'philip morris apologetic'?

She's a bit like it_is_the_light (wharfy) in that.....once you challenge you become a 'shill' for freemasons, big oil, big tobacco etc....

Well that's not safe at all. What if you looked directly at it? You'd be blinded!
Does our childrens sense of sight mean nothing to you?
