New Smoking Laws Queensland Australia.

in #tobacco8 years ago

It seems where you can smoke is becoming Nazi like in Queensland Australia. More and more places become off limits and yet each year 4 the next 4 years prices in the form of tax will increase at 12.5 percent.

Last year an estimated 2.4 million tons of illegal tobacco entered Australia and i am sure that is set to rise. In Australia Cigarettes cost an average of ten times more than other countries.

Be warned if you do decide to be gangster and smuggle and you get caught you are charge almost worse than if it were drugs. Bit like a white collar crime of avoiding tax.

In short as a smoker in Australia of many years should i not die in a five star hospital surrounded by stripper Nurses that are hot? Instead this money does not get returned to those that pay more tax than anyone else. I see new wave of profit seeking people whom will turn Australia into a smuggling nation and side deals in pubs and street corners will become big. What do you think?
