I was working on a tv show a few years back when an AD came up and said check this out.
One of the producers had gotten a copy of a report the feds had done regarding the cost benefit analysis about warning people of the hazards of smoking cigs. Report determined it would benefit the gov if they kept quiet. Why? The reduced medicare and related expenses that would be paid out over the next 50 years due to the people not making it to retirement. Our gov like most govs if not all are insane in the membrane.
