Not to mention that corporations have gotten so much better at it. As bad as it was fighting the tobacco industry, it's nothing like what it is fighting the same people currently. Take the health care debate in the US for example. This is corporate lies at their finest. They've learned a lot from their mistakes in the past. We have here liberalism coming to a head to head battle with corporatism, and liberalism is going to lose abysmally.
Actually, liberalism could win if a coalition of Congressional progressives forced Obama to disregard his paycheck from the insurance industry by making him know that any of his inadequate bills will be voted down and he will be primaried in 2012. I give this about a .5% chance of happening though.
But I digress...
