In their heads, I think Australian lawmakers are trying to pretend they could make smoking illegal if they were really serious about it, but won't because it brings in more revenue than just about anything else and they're all secretly in bed with the tobacco execs, because regardless of whether the graphic pictures/plain packaging stop a single person from smoking (and I doubt it), keeping the tobacco issue at the forefront of people's minds is exceptionally good marketing as smokers will very vocally champion their right to smoke in the face of "bullying".
In short, it's yet another ploy by a sad and desperate government with no balls and even fewer brains between them.

It could be worse
