Actually, when smoking revenue starts to drop because the number of smokers will decrease each year, governments will have to figure what, if anything, is left to tax.

And when the smokers are all gone, government's need to spend will not decrease. I hope it goes well. To make it really interesting, maybe the tobacco tax can start to drop about the same time that Social Security runs out of money.

What makes you think that smokers will decline? hehe!

The government is already trying to figure out how to tax gun owners.  Next, it will be alcohol again.  It's never ending.
