What as world we live in. An authoritarian nightmare where our parents (the government) get to tell us which cigarettes we may or may not smoke.

It’s almost like placing exorbitant taxes on items which the government doesn’t deem dangerous enough to criminalise has created a black market. Fancy that!

Who would have thought that taxing the shit out of something would create a lucrative black market for organized criminals and not cut the smoking rate at all infact Australia is smoking more great work dickheads

We'll Government again ripping off the hard working Aussies. If people want to smoke leave them alone. 30 dollars for smokes. I smoke and enjoy it and I am over 60. So leave them alone or get rid of them all together. Stop hurting the worker. Just to put cash in your pocket.

Tax man gotta get paid!
