After what happened with the money from the Clinton-era tobacco lawsuit, and the education money shell game they ran on us with the lottery money, I'd say trust was probably a factor.

Beyond that I hope some of it was because they were smart enough to figure out that the politicians won't be willing to give up the tax revenues they're getting from it if they do get people to quit smoking - a tax increase on tobacco and smokers now is going to get transferred to something else later just to keep the dollars coming in.

That's why I voted against it.
