Yeah, because these types of labels are working SO well in the rest of the world...they try to ban smoking everywhere, yet they're all too happy to tax the crap out of smokers.
How about the diliberate flooding of nuke plants in america ? as if the contents of chemtrails and the radiation levels airbourne aren't enough , wheres the government warnings about breathing the air around us?
I am glad you've has some fun, Adam. But you are absolutely correct - live and let live. People should be able to choose whether to smoke or not to smoke, etc.
@Rita1972 The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
In other words rather than paying the higher taxes smokers would rather smuggle them from out of state, where there is a lower state tax on the product. Or buy them at a "duty free shop". I guess this kind of plays into the reality of putting a tax burden on consumers. Michigan governor Slick Rick Snyder has done nothing but raise taxes on poor and working families and gave tax cuts to large corporations. This may sound good in theory because by his logic "this will create jobs" but he is wrong.
Yeah they raised taxes on cigarettes in Michigan to "decrease cigarette use" and "raise revenue" but studies done have shown they didn't decrease the amount of smokers, just decreased the amount of buyers and shifted it to the "black market" the exact rate of people paying the "outrageous" $2 cigarette tax is the exact rate of smuggling that has happened since they raised the price. Obama put a tax on rolling tobacco, then everybody switched to pipe tobacco because its not taxed as hard.
Actually what they don't tell you is that cigarettes are addictive b/c of the sugar they put in them. The largest consumer of sugar in the world are the tobacco companies. Also it's the chemicals used to increase shelf life of cigarettes that cause lung cancer. In primitive cultures where they smoke organic (read: not grown with pesticides) tobacco leaves, there are ZERO cases of cancer. Come to think of it, these same cultures have zero cancer b/c they don't eat the crap that we do.
@Eilish1776 Maybe you are correct, but you are extremely exaggerating that there are ZERO cases of organic cigarette smoking associated lung cancer. C'mon. Be more reasonable.
This has been done in Chile for years now. I have friends there who brought Chilean Marlboro's to show, They did say it has been effective in reducing new teens from ever starting. However, I would love to make a t-shirt with a warning: "Warning: The Federal Government kills anyone and everyone in it's way."
We've had this is Australia for ages and its a good idea, its not just about telling people not to do it, because it puts a unnecessary strain on the government healthcare and hospital system
@AdamKokesh yeh i absolutely agree with you, i was looking at the pictures on the american packs aswell and they aren't nearly as bad as Australias, i'm not trying to say one is better than the other, just pointing it out. P.S keep doing what your doing
It is the same Tactic Hitler used to get the People locked up & drugged out of their minds for just smoking Cigarettes like I saw them doing to so many here in the USA. I have Photos of my Uncles in Uniform WW2 drinking & smoking, my Uncles Said, "Our Bear Drinking & our Smoking Cigarettes are not a Bad Rabbit that causes us to deserve to be locked up and be drugged out of our minds like the Nazis say, we keep the Grain and Tobacco Growers Employed," . tinyurlDOTcom/3wob3rq

Yet they won't mandate GMO labels and they forced, i think, voluntarily placed non-GMO labels to be removed.
