"Its a consumption tax, if you don't want to pay it, don't buy the alcohol."

Yep, but if everyone chose not to purchase it the "lost revenues" would cause the gubmint to find other "consumption taxes". When they finally get to taxing water consumption, will you take the same attitude?

Water is a nutrient - a necessity - smoke is not. Try living without water, then try living without smoke . . . I'd be interested in your findings.
