I don't support this at all.
"Sin" taxes make my blood boil.
This is just a silly excuse to generate more money for more gov't programs.
It gets passed because enough people don't smoke and vote for it--thinking the gov't will actually use the money wisely.
They just released their "plan" for the new smoking tax money here in Colorado and I was pissed. The things they were going to spend the money on (from campaign commercials) is nowhere near where they are going to actually spend the money.
We wouldn't need stupid taxes like this if we could actually get politicians to curb their spending.
