All the taxes for cigarettes goes to states to help curb smoking and to help defray costs associated with cigarette smoking. What will happen to those needed tax dollars when people quit enmass. Not to mention the fact that how many thousands of people will be out of work and the government will lose big tobacco corporations from the tax rolls.

Your answer is in your question. Yeah, the revenue will decline….just as you say. I do wonder if the politicians have thought of the consequences? Worth the result in any case. Good question.

I agree with all the smoking bans nation wide, but I feel that it is unfair for smokers to have the burden of all the additional taxes on cigarettes. I think also in order to get the health in this country in order they should start taxing junk foods, including fast foods!

I don’t think many people die from second-hand hamburgers. I have never seen someone intoxicated and driving froma milk shake.

Obviously there are economic and social factors that preclude an outright ban on cigarette smoking. However, can you think of a plan to eliminate smoking over the course of many years?
Centurion: Relax. The question is, "Is there a way to accomplish such a mission?" A little jumpy, aren’t you?
PEOPLE: This is not intended as a debate over the pros and cons of smoking. This is strictly a strategy question.

Propose bills that would allow landlords to NOT allow their tenants to smoke in the units.
Make cigarettes SO expensive because of taxes that people would NOT buy them.
Ask family members of people who passed from lung cancer or other smoking related deaths to allow the family member’s images be used for a nationwide commerical, targeting smokers.
Institute fines for not disposing of cigarette butts properly.

The rise in cigarette tax for the health of our children.
I’m non-smoker.

Unfortunately, the people who proposed this legislation understand supply and demand about as well as a fish understands trigonometry.

When the cost of cigarettes goes up, people smoke less or quit smoking altogether. Then, the money that was supposed to go to health-care is gone. What do you think will be Congress’s response? Raise taxes on everyone, of course!

This reminds me of another piece of legislation here in Florida. The govt wasn’t making enough money on the toll roads so they decided to raise the price of the tolls. The problem is that now, nobody uses the toll roads because they are too expensive.

When most people stop smoking, how is the non-existent tax money supposed to pay for anything?

This legislation is counter-intuitive and it doesn’t make an ounce of sense.
