Good job Florida!

They didn't even have the balls to call it a tax.

In many places a “tax” requires a super majority while a “user fee” does not. Don’t know about Florida.

All the tax money and user fees collected on tobacco products all go to fund programs that will not disappear if everyone quits using tobacco products. Where will the money come from to fund those programs then?
