thanks capitalism

It's not just a story about a tobacco spokesman, it's not just a history of lobbying, but most importantly, it's a reflection of how American society works. There are always some not so noble industries, such as tobacco, alcohol, arms. However, everyone is the same. On the surface, the righteous who seem to be sanctimonious are also those who fight for their own interests.

Yes, I am not noble, but how noble are you? Although Nick bribed spokespersons and asked Hollywood to insert soft broadcasts, he never admitted that he was not a good person, and those so-called "good people", reporters who exchanged their bodies for information (this violated the professional ethics of journalists), originally acted as tobacco hazards The old cowboy of the witness finally chose to remain silent in the face of money (because this is the rule of the game), the politicians strongly called for a ban on smoking, but they defended their supporters, the cheese company and the famous wine company, and the anti-tobacco extremists kidnapped Nick and plastered him. The nicotine patch...that's capitalism, everybody's doing it for their own good.

Still, who says this isn't an efficient model for keeping society functioning? Noble is the epitaph of the noble, and the mean is the pass of the mean. Everyone has the same unspeackable side, but it depends on who is less noble than the other.

However, his love for his son made this man choose to quit this competition of "who is less noble than who". He could have pursued the victory and returned to the position of the tobacco industry giant, but he chose to quit and become a public relations trainer , Anyway, his talent is talk. This is the most humorous and warm ending of the whole play.
