I doubt most start smoking thinking it will be fine by they 18. They just need to bypass enforcements. Dodgy shops and drug dealers will provide it

The statistics may show a decline in 'legal' smokers but that doesn't include data on smokers using the black market. How do we truly know. I agree with the law and enforcements but it gets to a point where it makes it difficult for the legal adults , they are being forced dictated into what they can and not choose to do with our own selves
