So I quit after 50 years of smoking. On my second week now without any real problems so far.
NOT going to pay those taxes for Liberal pet projects such as SCHIP.
Taxes should only be for maintenance of minimal Government as outlined in the Constitution, not for special idealogical pet projects of Partisan origin.
Keep it up! I have nearly 6 months behind me after 23 years of smoking. It has turned out to be easier than I expected.
I called my local state senator, to find out how to enroll in S Chip, alas, what a slap in the face, California does not have S Chip, we have the same program we always had Healthy Families,and it does not cover up to the age of 30 nor families making 85 grand a year. as was touted by the Save the kids group..Healthy families is a good tax payer plan, I had my kids enrolled in it 15 years ago.. but for zero to promote this extra tax on smokes was for a health plan for more kids, at least in California, it is not true.. = lie

You could not possibly have quit cold turkey. Nicotine is the most addictive substance on the planet, even more than heroine - so they say.
FYI, 40 years ago both my parent quit cold turkey, without patches or nicotine gum or clinics or anything else. They never looked back. My dad quit a year before my mom gave it up and in the mid 60s to boot (you could not escape smoke filled bars and restaurants back then).
I hope you continue to have no problems. Good for you.

Libtard reasoning:
higher cig taxes cut down on smokers.
higher imcome taxes do not cut down on work.
