Think about it like this. If this is the government response to something as simple as If you cut the tax on tobacco you fix the problem, you wonder why the country is in such as bad state.
Why are we the only country in the world that has this problem? Cigarettes around the world range between 4 to 8$ maximum, why are we selling them for 60$ a pack. What do these fools expect?
$60.00 for a pack of 30s , who's the organised criminal here. Most expensive smokes in the world and they blame someone else. The police should be arresting our politicians.
Illicit tobacco? Is this high school? I remember kids selling cigarettes to other kids for $1 a piece. My father in law grows tobacco here. But it's illegal in Australia?

私の国ではラッキーストライクが1箱(20本入り)450円、豪州価格の1割ぶんです。
それでも高いと感じますが、それが10倍となると...、もはやそれは「税金」の経済範囲を乗り越えた「罰金」の領域です。「罪人よ、罰を受けろ！」と政府が言ってるようなものです。
We would all be rich.
