Ugh. Tax cigarettes ... how does it make sense to expect more revenue from smokers, then figuratively hang smokers in effigy by banning smoking in restaurants (where lots of people smoke after eating!) which makes them smoke LESS, then force cigarette companies to add special poisons to the product to make them "fire safe" while at the same time making more people quit, while those who just cannot stop smoking die sooner due to the government-mandated poison?
We have idiots and greedy fools in the PA government. My preteen children are able to see how it doesn't make sense to create the laws that contradict each other. Why can't Rendell and the legislature?
