>>996980Governments can't be that smart, and you know this. People start trying to game the system and then they have to say:
>ok that's it-nobody's allowed to have nice things anymore. Over here pipe tobacco is taxed much less than cigarette tobacco, so there are dozens of brands that sell things like pic related, RYO cigarette-cut tobacco labeled as pipe tobacco.
Technically they're not wrong, because pipes can smoke anything you put into them, but if they were REALLY relying on the 2% of smokers in the US who use a pipe for smoking, they'd have gone out of business long ago.
I expect that at some point there'll be an effort to "close the pipe tobacco loophole!" But until then, I'll enjoy flying under the radar just a little longer.
Governments know this
