So if it was a freeby, you wouldn't mind wasting the money but you are not willing to risk it if you had to use your own money. Exactly why it shoud not be government funded.
.
So do those that never use the program get their money back?
What's the purpose of getting the government involved unless your goal is to increase government employment? I bet you are one of those that think getting a big income tax refund it is a good thing. :tocktock2It's a HYPOTHETICAL situation.
If it assuages your "entitlement program" warning system then lets say it hypothetically is a deposit.
You pay a few cents per pack, if you decide you want to quit and want to take advantage of the deposit to do so, then you turn in x amount of box tops to cover or offset the treatment options.
If you don't want to play then you can turn in your box tops for a refund of the deposit.

I must be a 13 year old boy at heart because the title of this thread makes me giggle.
He said smoker's pole. :lol:
So you think its partisan to think folks should take care of themselves. That explains your wanting others to give you free stuff. :roll:And I bet your attempt to pigeonhole me is way off, so you can drop your partisan attacks here.

No thanks, unlike you, I don't need any bones or anything else thrown to me. I can take care of myself.ohh im sorry.. your attempt to stereotype me based on limited information was not because it was one of those "damned liberal" entitlement ideas?
And again you stereotype me, the hypothetical has nothing to do with "free stuff"
but whatever, I threw you a bone to actually try to get you to participate constructively in this thread.
think what you may.. I am a damn tree hugging no tax paying liberal after another free handout.. you got me., that was the purpose of this thread. I'm done with your distractions.
Yep, sure is. :roll:

No program is going to be particularly effective unless the smoker really wants to quit, and if the smoker really wants to quit, there are a large number of things that will work, many of which state governments help fund. It is something that I know the state of Michigan does.
