That's a good chart.

after adding in the federal tax of 39cents, the MSA paypment of 45cents and the various state and local sales taxes per pack.....on average the various government take is about 43% of the price of each pack of cigarettes.

Of course they will never be forbidden.....governments can't take that kind of a hit in lost revenues.
