    Not necessarily. People could actually start smoking more because tax free cigarettes are astronomically cheaper

      Are people smoking less weed now it’s legal in many US states?

      Where do you think tax free cigarettes are going to come from?

        They are either domestic bootlegs or imports. If cigarettes were actually fully banned, organized crime groups would begin mass cigarette smuggling and manufacturing operations. Sounds ridiculous, but it’s true

          People don’t enjoy or need smoking that much, so no.

          And my first question?
