House Votes To Have FDA Regulate Tobacco
A Cigarette Of A Different Color Is Still A Cigarette
The FDA now has power to regulate tobacco but does it really matter? What does it mean that they have power and can now regulate tobacco? Actually they are going to implement some dumb strategies. For some reason they think that children start smoking because of colorful advertisements. Instead of colorful ads the cigarette company now has to have plain old black and white ads. Kids don’t start smoking because of blue, red and green. They start smoking because of wanting to be cool or peer pressure.
Your Thoughts
Is it a good thing that the FDA now has more control over tobacco? Is it dumb to push for black and white ads as opposed to color ads?
I smoke -- unfortunately. Also unfortunately taxes on cigarettes have increased by nearly 35% in just the past month. What does the FDA have to do with that? Not sure, but whenever the government gets its sticky fingers into something even deeper than before you better clutch your wallet tight, bubba.
What do you think of the ads? That's not you in the picture is it, from when you were a youngin?
quite possibly me. My father used to think it was cute to stick one of his unlit cigarettes in my mouth for the amusement of company.
