Thats such a ridiculous idea.Already,the anti-smoking lobby is campaigning for increasing tobbaco prices,to "discourage" people for smoking,which again is crap.If I want to smoke a cigarette inspite of all their paranoid warnings,I ll want to smoke a cigarette even if it's more expensive.Of course,if they make it really expensive,the lower middle class working guy will probably be forced to switch to a cheaper,possibly unfiltered brand,which won't exactly serve their purposes,would it?I fail to understand the purpose of such a 10 bucks license fee suggestion,it sends out the wrong idea.As soon as one country implements it,anti-smokers all over the world will be all for it.Seen it already in case of the ban on smoking in public places fiasco......
