Dulce Sloan: Whenever There’s Economic Distress, Alcohol and Smoking Sales Would Always Go Up

‘Listen, they’re thinking that people do it out of boredom’

EXCERPT:

SLOAN: “Listen, they're thinking that people do it out of boredom, that can't be it. It's --  whenever there is like economic distress, alcohol and tobacco sales always go up. Like whenever there is a recession or a bad economic time...”
NOAH: “Yeah, but the smoking I don’t get.”
SLOAN: “Because you get to the point where you are so, like people have always been told that smoking can be a stress reliever, right.”
NOAH: “Ohhh.”
SLOAN: “Okay I’m scared, I’m freaked out, you get to a certain point, if it is going to— let’s see which one kills me first.”
