$60 bucks a cigarette. For a pack of 12 cigarettes it would be $720. That would get em to stop real fast, withdrawal symptoms or not.

JigSaw: Here in New York it is 100$ plus (depending on where you purchase from) .... 20 cigarettes in one pack which costs $10.00. Thats ridiculous...to spend that amount of money only to slowly kill yourself...that's why I get my mailed to me from friends and family in other states like Florida and Georgia. Where a carton is only 25 bucks.

JigSaw : It's not even close to $100 in Canada. depending on where you get your smokes, it's like $20 a carton; In between $6.50 and $13.00 a pack. our cartons run normally aroun 45 to 65 bucks... and it's different in each province too. (provinces are basically what you know as states.) if you really wanna stop smoking... make it illegal.

$9,000 is far too much. That would never happen. The people who work in the tobacco industry need some money too. Perhaps instead of increasing the monetary price of cigarettes, they add a condition instead. Each cigarette will cost you one day of your life. People would rather spend money than time (remember this). I'm not sure how this would work, but, it would definitely make me stop (if I were a smoker) if it were somehow executed.

For ever cigarette they smoke they have to be kicked in the groin/ovaries. That'd get people to stop, or just alot of people wouldn't have kids.

septembern is right. If they raise the price on cigarettes so high that only rich people can buy them, the poor people will turn to other forms of smoking like cigars and marijuana. Plus people will just steal the cigarettes if the price is raised too high. Raising the prices on cigarettes is a good way to increase the crime rate.

Well as a smoker..I know if cigarettes costs over 10 dollars, I refuse to buy them. That wouldn't make me quit smoking completely...but it would lessen the amount of cigarettes I smoke greatly.

Well, a lot of people in my area quit, because there's a new tobacco tax, where whatever they do costs 8 bucks extra.
