One of the dodgiest advertisements I am seeing for some time are the ads for nicotine patches. Those ads try to depict the craving for cigarettes. I feel that media regulating bodies should pay a bid more attention to those ads. I feel that those ads instead of providing a relief for craving just ignite them instead. They make you remember that you need a nicotine fix, which you can get through the patch or a cigarette itself.
I feel they are advertising for both cigarettes and the patch, which ever you will spend your money on. I think the image of the cigarette, cigarette smoke, or someone igniting a cigarette in those ads are just invitations to smoke, or put a patch on, because they do not really want you to get over your addiction.

Up the price of a pack of cigarettes to $50 and we'll see how quickly people want to give up.
