Gov't never learns the lesson, this has been tried before and failed. This idea of raising taxes on smoking material to ridiculous levels was attempted in Canada about a decade ago. An expected windfall in tax revenue never materialized, small business owners were hurt. The only ones to reap a profit were Indians who were smuggling cigarretes into Canada, I believe mostly Ontario and Quebec, across the St. Lawrence River. This poorly thought out tax revenue scheme was soon dropped by the gov't.

What will happen is the gov't will find a way to tax the untaxed sources while the smoker will eventually fall back into his old habits and go for convience.
