    Great goal but like with all other narcotics, wouldn’t this just create a huge black market and thus massively fund criminal organizations?

      I’m not so sure

      Cigarettes are not often seen with the same attraction as other drugs

      The draw from younger potential customers is greatly outweighed by far less harmful stuff like weed or even shrooms

      I think chances are we are at a stage where most would-be smokers would just opt for vaping, given that while it sounds like he wants some restrictions on that as well, it doesn’t like that’d be subjected to the year over year age increase?
