Higher tobacco prices do decrease smoking. But a fine over .11 is over the top.
Right. I'm not for smoking, people should quit, but it's not the government's place to coerce it even paternalistically.\
It's odd. Here the government raises prices with the belief it will reduce smokers while at the same time it raises wages with the belief it will increase jobs.
