For example, with tobacco we are quickly reaching the stage when it'd be ultra-cool to wear 'the badge'. And, of course, teens would be the most receptive to making a statement. It'd be interesting to see how tobacco companies would react to people walking around with brands emblazoned on T-shirts if and when the antis succeed with plain packaging. Whatever, it'd be a great opportunity for the counterfeit clothes industry.

The Antis are moving much more seriously, quickly, and blatantly toward total Denormalization now in all spheres since they've determined that people will put up with it.<br /><br />- MJMMichael McFaddenhttp://profiles.google.com/cantilopernoreply@blogger.com
