Well it’s about time you smokers knew that cigarettes are bad for you.

November 11, 2010

Because it’s only your ignorance that keeps you smoking:

Corpses, cancer patients and diseased lungs: These are some of the images the federal government plans for larger, graphic warning labels for cigarette packages.

The images are part of a new campaign announced by the Food and Drug Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services today to reduce tobacco use, which is responsible for about 443,000 deaths per year.

Wow, man, that is scary. Bet you won’t even be able to touch a pack of cigarettes with that printed on them.

Question: how much of my tax money went to develop that? Because I’d like a refund, please.

Via Memeorandum.

    The only reason anyone continues to smoke is because our Betters have not communicated The Message effectively.

    A refund? How about a discount on a carton of Lucky Strikes?
