Government apply heavy taxes on tabacco and alcohol as a deterrent. A bottle of spirits is like $40 for the cheapest shit, most will run you between 50-70 for decent stuff. I haven't smoked in a very long time so not 100% but I think 1 pack of smokes is the better part of $50 now, which is fucking insane

My straight edge dad, a doctor, would comment there are a number of very useful drugs. "Drugs Are Really Excellent" was his interpretation.

It's like $20-25 for a six pack of beer in Australia now, drugs are the cheaper option

It depends on the drugs...

Many drugs are far more affordable than alcohol. And more fun.
