And people still do not care nor will think it will happen to them. They can hang out with oral surgery residents or maxilliofacial prosthodontists for a couple of days and see what these cancer sticks are capable of doing.

Cigarette packs have this in Canada. As well as other things about impotence, problems during pregnancy, and periodontitis.

Smokers accede that they are absorbed to nicotine. Even the tobacco companies these canicule are acceptance that nicotine in cigarettes is addictive. What is not broadly accepted is that added chemicals present in tobacco smoke are aswell addictive and contempo analysis has articular the actinic acetaldehyde as a almighty addictive compound.

Google translator huh...?

Granted this isn't a scholarly article, but there is some evidence that suggests the pictures actually encourage smoking:

One of the experiments presented (that illustrates how consumers are not good at reporting how they feel, think or behave) consisted in projecting on a screen inside the fMRI machine images with cigarette packaging that contained health warning labels. The results of scanning a group of smokers were unexpected: the warning labels stimulate an area of the brain (nucleus accumbens) that lights up when people are craving something. So, the messages and images that aimed scaring smokers in order to reduce cancer rates and save lives, actually encourages them to light their cigarettes and this way they became a marketing tool, although the subjects of the study said that they were concerned about the labels and the negative health consequences.
