Liquor and tobacco regulations

Liquor and tobacco regulations govern the sale, distribution, and consumption of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products. These laws typically set minimum age limits (e.g., 18 or 21), regulate licensing for retailers and producers, and establish rules for advertising and labeling. They also include taxes and restrictions on where these products can be sold or used, aiming to protect public health and safety. Enforcement varies by jurisdiction, with penalties for violations. Overall, these regulations aim to balance individual freedoms with community health considerations.
