    The video shows that Tobacco and smoking is bad and show a negative side of smoking. They show the benefits of non-smokers. They activate strong emotions because it shows how people who smoke get an unfair advantage.

    I think this piece of propaganda is beneficial since it makes people realize how much money smokers waste. It also makes it sound like we can be the generation to stop smoking. The video uses the slogan at the end "be the generation that stops."

    I think this piece of propaganda is very beneficial because it gives statistics to convince people to quit smoking.
