This is so bogus. If tobacco is so durn bad, why don't they ban it? Hypocrits!

"The report called Maine, Maryland, Indiana and New Jersey 'the nation's new leaders in tobacco prevention.'"In addition they are the most intrusive on citizens' privacy and leaders in imposing discriminatory taxes on smokers. Drinkers, and over-eaters are next. There is no line limiting these states from imposing such taxes.

For instance: The Partnership for a Tobacco Free Maine is sponsoring Speedway 95, and Wiscasset Race Track. Memorial Day, the "prestigious" Partnership for a Tobacco Free Maine is awarding the winner of the Coastal 200- $10,000. With $4500 going to the runner-up. And how many toxins does that spew in to the air.
Hypocrites.
