Casey Costello's order to halve the tax is "something that tobacco companies would have been keen to see," an expert says.

Not sure if this is a good thing or not.

HTP’s may help stop smoking, or just as likely (in my opinion) increase the rate of people starting.

Seems like a win for the tobacco industry either way.

    I’d love to see graphs of the true cost of various bad decisions.

    The housing stock, child respiratoey disease and the long time burden on the health system is another one, but it would be much harder to do.
