WHEN POVERTY IS AS DEADLY AS CANCER

Though there has been much debate against the tobacco industry; I see that there's still bias in terms of discussion against the industry.When we look at the production side of tobacco, mostly for countries in the sub saharan Africa.Mostly small scale farmers a larger percentage of the population depend on tobacco farming as a source of livelihood,if we force them out of production how would they survive. We want to save people's life's by destroying some people's life, where thero no much sense.there's little they can do without tobacco farming. We shouldn't only think of the big investors in the supply chain but the characteristics of the primary producer as well. If we say yes to tobacco disinvestment, cancer cases will decline as argued but will happen to the primary producers who are poor and are in large numbers. Force them out of the industry you possibly forcing them into a slow death out of poverty
