The tax increase of the cigarette was shelved.In Japan, the price of the cigarette is low.About 60% of the price of the cigarette are tax.The price of the current cigarette is 290 yen on an average,but there is a talk making a pack of cigarettes 1,000 yen.The number of smokers decreases due to the orientation toward good health.
I think that the number of smokers decreases by a tax increase more.Smoking is bad for the health certainly,I know,but I won't give up smoking.
