They started tobbcoco tax to cover smokers health costs, now its Childrens Health Costs.

Allegedly, the huge lawsuit was for the added costs of health care for smokers, too. Did so much as a dime of any of that money ever go to pay a smoker's doctor bills?

But now, under Obambicare, you not only get to pick up the tab for smoker's lungs, but HIV, AIDS, HepC, alcohol rehab, drug rehab, and other serologically transferred and/or "lifestyle" diseases.

Ain't Socialism grand?

In the meantime, they'll keep raking in the other 'taxes', too.

Smokers reaped not a nickle of the tax.

We just got dumped on.

It’s all divide and conquer and it’s all BS.
