I agree with you on overtaxing,though.Tobacco is indeed too expensive and encourages a black market. I also agree the same could happen with drugs if tax isn't applied carefully.

There is a thriving black market for fags and booze ,in fact just about anything that is taxed simply because the crooks can supply/produce cheaper and people want cheap .Of course some will by legit drugs as they buy legit fags but there will always be a black market for drugs imo
