Yep. For all the wailing and gnashing of teeth that's why liberals are such douches.

Waaah! We wanted people to stop smoking, but at the same time we need the taxes to pay for children's health care.

Cigarette sales are down. Taxes go down.

What to do?

Legalize smoking...POT, and tax it.

Another example of liberal brilliance: Americans waste too much in fuel and cause pollution.

Push for electric cars and hybrids that use less gas.

Waaah! We don't sell enough gasoline now, and tax revenues are going down.

Better raise gas taxes!
