It would be like if the State said you can't buy a glass of whiskey you have to buy the whole bottle.
But I recommend quitting cold turkey.

if the leadership did not smoke, nazis surely did. many many folks in concentration camps bribed their way around with the SS with cigarettes. Interesting how a drug can overpower an ideology. the SS would just as easily kill any of these people, and yet they bargain with them from behind barbed wire cuz the NAZIs only gave them a handful of cigarettes in their rations, and the jews had some to spare.
