Has anybody seen reliable statistics to show a reduction in smoking attributable to advertising restiction and plain packaging? If there is a reduction, it would be difficult to attribute it solely to no advertising. A reduction could also be due to restictions on where people can smoke.
I feel that with smoking and drinking, peer pressure plays a bigger part than advertising does with young people.
Its unfortunate that kids get hooked on one or both.
