The FedGov would sh*t a brick if everyone who uses tobacco products said, "you know I believe you're right and I'll never use tobacco again!" They would rather lose a percentage of people to cancer and keep collecting those outrageous "sin" taxes.

lose a percentage of people to cancer

Let's not forget that for all their BS, the Feds benefit greatly in SSI and Medicare benefits they don't have to pay out every time someone (like my father) dies before his time.
