I am 100% sure it wont help
addiction is one thing silly images cant stop
usualy money is not an issue either...but atleast one here have stopped thanks to that
the world is moving to a more nonsmoking populations anyway so why bring on more ads
most likely the company is going to make a huge profit in some way...for doing this so thats why
MONEY capitalism MONEY
so of courz there is going to be companys making a profit trying to "save" us all
great PR for the government too to back up these scam companies
that pisses me off alot more than ppl smoking

hahahah this pistures canˇt help becauce ppl who smoke donˇt care abouth death...
my opinion on that pictures:
1.-I donˇt understand
2.-he should visit dentist
3.-smog from cars is killing too but they canˇt afford to put graphic warning on expensive cars
how abouth make a motto like this:Smoke will kill you 3-years before smog x3

Yeah they're legal, but they're so ridiculously expensive. Every smoker I know just buy theirs from dealers or off natives.

There are cigarette dealers? Are you kidding me? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Please tell me they're not old enough to buy them.
You'd be better off selling drugs. At least you'd make money. Selling either is a felony anyways. The state would probably go after you harder for selling cigs since you're, more or less, taking their precious tax dollars away.
Also, why buy them off of natives? Go to a gas station on the reservation. Newports are $7.50 in the town I live in, but on the reservation in Green Bay, they're a little over $5. Both those prices are rather cheap compared to some larger cities I suppose.

Wow...before more "experts" coughdumbassescough confidently go ahead and say stupid things like "I'm 100% sure that it won't work", please go and actually study up on the matter.
The U.S is finally took up the program years after many countries had already done so. This is because the program proved its effectiveness.
Years of results > your "expert" opinions.

I don't think it'd do much.
I mean they made fast food joints put up the amount of calories their food has right next to it in the menu and it didn't stop people from noming away.

Text and graphical warnings are two different things.

Perhaps it will prevent some people from smoking. If they weren't fully aware of just how much damage smoking can do to the body
But I do not think it will stop people who are already smoking. Meh, who knows.

There's a pretty damn high demand for cigarettes. So it's not surprising there are dealers who specialize in it. And how would the state do anything about it? Outside the cities police are useless and non-existent to the point that some are brave enough to smoke weed while walking about town.
Also, why buy them off of natives? Go to a gas station on the reservation. Newports are $7.50 in the town I live in, but on the reservation in Green Bay, they're a little over $5. Both those prices are rather cheap compared to some larger cities I suppose.
That's what I meant. They're $20.00CDN a pack, where I'm from.
