    Eventually stores will just stop selling them. Why stock cigarette when you only sell 10 packs a month.

    I think it’s a great idea. People will create a black market for them, but it will be really small and die out.

    It’s not like you really get anything from it like you do from alcohol or other drugs.

      Similar ehhhhhh as earlier.

      There are moments when a cigarette gives you an amazing or just right, feeling, for lack of a better word. In reality you’re just sating a self inflicted addiction, but it can feel great to do so.

      I don’t think it’s a good trade, that’s why I no longer smoke, but I understand the simple pleasure. Even if in the long, medium, heck, often even short term that pleasure has stupid costs.
