No, net budgetary effect? If I was running a business that would like saying 'massive unexpected profits for the year.' When the government is running hundred of billions of dollars in deficits year after year this is a huge win.

The fact that they will be taking in over 2 billion in Revenue speaks to the increasing size of governmet due to this legislation. The government isn't in the business of making gross profits, they are supposed to be in the business of breaking even. This report shows slight increases in gross regardless.

Anyway, why the hell do you think the government has the right to restrict what tobacco products I enjoy?
