studies like this just prove how pointless excessive taxation and bans are when something is already on the market.

most ilicit drugs were commonplace items 100 years ago traded openly in apothecaries' when they got banned the black market continued to supply them exactly the same as it had legally done so for hundreds of years before hand only now they hide the money and killed competitors, nicotine will become the next big black market item if the bans get enacted and people will start to purchase much higher strength lower grade products, the food flavourings will continue to be produce (for the baking industry) and continue to be bought by vapers everywhere, diy mixer will continue as if little had changed regardless of the bans and lots of people will end up very rich supplying those without the contacts their illicit high grade gear, gear that will be greatly degraded as the years grow and the product lines get more contaminated by unscrupulous gits chasing quick profits, in anything prohibition should of taught the world that is what happens to the population, new gangs form and control murderously their product and corruption becomes rife within official channels (ok more openly rife than currently)

lets hope more proper studies are undertaken and nobody is foolish enough to explain how they intend to subvert any proposed bans, just so those loopholes don't get closed
