Most viable 2 choices: quit or roll yer own.

Well that's just great until the next politically incorrect product comes along that we can all demonize, make you feel bad for it so you don't fight back, tax the hell out of it, never mention banning it because that would kill the purpose of demonizing it, and spend it on everything else but what it was taxed from. Politicians ride every bandwagon the can to justify taken your money from you and it they are slick enough doing it you applaud them all the way to the poor farm. This is not a train that will stop, with momentum it is only a matter of time before they step on your toes and you scream and everyone else will say so what why do I care and you get hammered and start to understand. Fatty foods, alcohol, etc.. only a matter of time before it is triple in cost. I choose not to ride this train.

The tax on freon was an example of such a successful tax.
