No, because if you look at prohibition, which happened in America, right, back in the 19, I think it was 1928, 29, or something like that.
What happened?
made millionaires out of the gangsters because they could charge what they wanted for the product, right?
That's what's going to happen.
No, but they had to lift prohibition because no matter how much police and activity they put in, they were buying off the police.
And that's what will happen with cigarettes.
Unless you abolish the thing and you don't have the product in the country.
That's the only way to do it, right?
If you say, say, for example, I'm 19, 18 when that prohibition comes in, but I've seen people around me smoking all my life.
I'm going to go looking for them.
Where am I going to go looking for them?
On the black market.
What's going to happen there?
I'm going to pay a fortune for the product, right?
I'm going to have to smoke in secret like they did through the prohibition years.
They were drinking through the entire prohibition years, right?
But the only people who are going to have any advantage out of this are the sellers who are going to sell you that product.
Yeah, but even when you're taking the prohibition basis of it, right?
You're still going to be selling cigarettes for the next 80 years.
