Typically government cure “add a tax to make money off the problem so we can line our pockets, but do nothing to actually fix the behavior”.
People who buy nips are still going to buy them and toss them on the ground, because nips are typically sold to homeless people or alcoholics. They don’t care about keeping anything clean and will continue to litter and buy them.
