There was no black market prior to this?
>>There was no black market prior to this?<<
Not per se. The prior market was underground. My reference as to an ALTERNATE market to the “legitimate” one.
For example, there is a big cigarette black market due to the “sin taxes” that have made them so expensive.
At least those are my definitions.
The point is: as usual, the Law of Unintended Consequences will NOT be mocked.
