The vast majority of that $5.00 goes to... government in the form of taxation. Those evil progressives are stealing food off his plate.

You're right - cigarette tax targets the poor. Same with Lotto - targets those who can't do math... and are likely poor because of it. Dems would never put a cigarette type tax on white wine... or expensive chocolates or wind surfing etc...
