Here in Michigan, Governor Depressionator is already talking about raiding stimulus money to balance the budget due to a “breathtaking” drop in revenue from tobacco and lottery taxes. We’re talking 200 million under estimates.

This is so ironic. Yes, let's tax the mean old smokers to the hilt because they have a nasty habit.

So the mean old smokers quit and oops there goes the revenue.

So they'll have to just tax everybody now to make up the difference.

I think the smokers warned all the non-smokers long ago that this would happen so we don't wanna hear y'all whining about it.
