MODERATORS
In Australia cigarettes are sold behind the counter, all packets are identical brown with plain white text with the brand. You can't smoke them in public, and they're one of the highest taxed products (a 25 pack will easily cost you $50)
And yet we still have a major smoking problem here.
Mostly because of black market fags, $20 illegal import packs, and "vape wars". It's shocking when a tabbaconist shop doesn't get fire bombed by a competing shop.
That said, the tax revenue is nice, if people wanna smoke the rest of the community may as well get something out of it.
Tax the birdie.
Australia is doing better than it was 20 years ago.
