Obviously they won't do that because tobacco sales is a cash cow for the states/feds.
I read somewhere that Ohio has been very effective in getting smokers to quit, due to high tobacco taxes. They're now expecting a series shortfall, due to falling tobacco sales. So, they want to raise taxes (again) on cigarettes.
