OMG....do you know whats in that

Cigarette warnings have been changed on packages for the first time in over twenty-five years. The depiction of deceased lungs, corpses, and other graphic images are disturbing to many, however, the Food and Drug Administration is backing up this move.
The decision to make cigarettes more unattractive to consumers has been pushed forward by proponents to stop people from smoking by using images that are disturbing to the consumer. The warning labels will cover half of the package’s front and rear, plus the top twenty percent of all cigarette ads. The statements on the package will not have the usual warning by the Surgeon General, but a much more severe admonishment by regulators.
They are hoping to stop young people from ever picking up their first pack, and by using the graphic images, they say this, “We want to make sure every person who picks up a pack of cigarettes knows exactly what the risk is they are taking,” Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sibelius said at a news conference.


Personally I do not think the new package labels will stop people from smoking, but it can help. No matter what you tell them people they still have an addition. No one label will stop their want for nicotine. What is can do is make it less appealing and hope people turn it down or never pick it up.
