They knew very well what would happen. They created a black market to enhance their own incomes. Anyone who doesn't think these politicians aren't personally getting some of the smuggling proceeds should bid on the Brooklyn Bridge.
This is a fact, when smuggling was big in Canada, even politicians and DOCTORS were smuggling, this from the prime ministers right hand mand, and he said it on television.
Smuggling is back in Canada as well.
I agree. I don't know if this was in the plan to begin with, but it will certainly be the reason why they will never cut the tax, no matter how much it appears they will lose. Their extra income will still be there, but off the books.
You may very well be right. It wouldn't surprise me a bit.
