Actually there are alcohol taxes.
The reason that cigarette taxes cost cigarette smoking more than alcohol taxes cost drinkers has to do with how successful the do-gooders have been lately at isolating and separating cigarette smokers. Now they are trying to do the same thing with salt, sugar (or corn syrup), butter, beef (or maybe all meats) in sort of the same manner that a lion seeks out a weak antelope.
I am opposed to all of these taxes. When some are more free than others, we have an Animal Farm.
