Alcohol and cigarettes are two of the most popular vices and is being considered in our country to be of help if taxes in such products will be increased. They say that if taxes will be increased in these products, fewer people would have access to it and therefore will help in individual health, and if for those who can afford it, it will bring more revenue to the government. Do you think this is a good idea for the people and government? your thoughts mylotters!

Agree. Less tax on the most basic needs, and more tax added on the sin products!
