did the realization that there are actual dangers incurred from such behavior; make you feel a sense of guilt and as though you had done something definitely wrong? do you feel regret over your decisions and not because of the impact it had on you personally?

you're a pretty cool fuckin dude.

Do the people who are in charge of marketing and responsible for providing a positive image for their products (cigarettes), actually believe their products to be less dangerous than scientific studies have proven otherwise?

The reason I ask is because it's insane the level of disconnect there appears to be with most top-tier execs (in most companies that provide unhealthy products) and the image they are selling as opposed to the image of reality.

So really, do the execs think cigs are a good choice for anyone? and if they truly do believe that's the case, do you know why they could believe such a thing?

good way of putting it. It just always seems so strictly bizarre that there is such a huge disconnect.

Kind of like when McDonald's tried to crush down on "Super Size Me", I mean....I guess I could never in a million years envision myself as being "the guy" who goes to interviews and says shit like

"our food is great for you, those people don't know what they're talking about!"

I would literally never be able to sleep knowing how massive an asshole I would be perceived as. Not only that, but I would feel like anyone who would know who I am (in such a hypothetical circumstance as this one) would immediately know not to trust a single word that comes out of my mouth, if, words such as those came out of it.

It sometimes feels like the freedom of enterprise then creates individual beings that act on and believe their own realities, which can sometimes be completely against what would constitute as progress for the general public. And that, to me, seems really fucking weird.

well it just makes me think that with all the possibility that there exists to build something great or to be something/someone great of your own conduct and accord..I guess it always seemed completely and utterly pointless to be the drone because we don't get a life #2, #3, etc. as if we can just use 1 full life to be shitty, gain a truckload of money and then use life #2 as a way to take that money and be better.

I'd rather make my money in a way that actually benefits other people or at the very least offers a product that's entertaining without anything negative happening to the body or the person who buys the product.

I guess it feels good knowing I actually have those limitations on myself to not be that guy, but my god....some people simply have no soul or don't give any fucks and that, honestly, slows us all down in one way or another.
