[quote=Wyldesyde19]Cigarettes is a false equivalence. 

For sure, US made their  fair share of silly stuff.  Some  work. Some don’t. But you can’t criticize the Us industry for it while ignoring or praising Japan or Hong Kong for the same thing. And there’s enough to go around there.

[quote=Mr Minio]They did get it briefly in the 70s but then the blockbusters and silly stuff entered the scene. I blame Spielbeeg and 1980s boomer economic wonder.[/quote]

But instead…I’ll just remark at how you just used the old “I’m rubber and you’re glue, whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you” retort.  Classic. It’s almost like I’m discussing this with a 15 year old. 
As you were[/quote]
