Can you stop falling for the biggest "plain packaging" lie of all.<br /><br />Anyone who has seen the disease pornography on our packets will know it is anything but plain. If you saw it anywhere else outside of a medical textbook you'd know you were dealing with one sick bunch of puppies.<br /><br />And given that smoking rates tend to be higher among the already marginalised and the poorer, not to mention the depressed and mentally ill, the graphics are really an assault not only on self esteem in these groups but a demonization of them as modern "lepers".<br /><br />There are already suggestions for electronic registration and tagging through Health Care Cards to further monitor and restrict our access. The 21st century equivalent of forcing us to carry bells to warn of our diseased presence among others.Goh Ahweinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-31190317607921954462015-02-13T15:29:17.293+00:002015-02-13T15:29:17.293+00:00Now Dick, if this stuff wasn't true, why would...Now Dick, if this stuff wasn't true, why would someone like Maynard be making it up?
