We all takes risks. Cigars are one of mine. I'm more likely to die in an auto accident than from smoking cigars.

How many people are killed in automobile accidents each year? Why does one drive?

Last year my state appropriated nothing from their federal tobacco tax allocation towards cancer, education...

If one chooses to partake in anything related to tobacco, why isn't it their responsibility to either learn the possible consequences or accept them? How would your MD feel about it?

Tobacco companies will go broke if big government continues it's aggressive tax measures. Ensuing consequences include unemployment, sudden decreased federal spending, increased health care costs... It's the same old game time and time again, if some guy wants to be wealthy, why tax his incentives? Leave the tobacco companies alone and allow the users to make personal choices. Intrude upon their freedom and soon you won't be eating fast food, driving an SUV, owning a gun...
