And what happens in Germany? They introduced taxes on liquids making stuff twice as expensive as it used to be, effectively strangling the fluid market. What’s the alternative? Back to tobacco?

Another stupid part of that is that makes the single-use ones more attractive, which are just a terrible idea. IMHO those should be taxed and/or have a "bottle deposit"-style system.
