Government doesn't get any taxes from the tobacco I grow here for my own use.

Bullsh**. Three months after Obama was elected to his first term, he jacked up the tobacco tax by 50%. A 3.00 pack of cigarettes now costs 6.00. It destroyed the HaveATampa cigar company and put it out of business, because they could no longer afford the taxes and regulations. And that company had been in business for almost 60 years. Three thousand people who worked for that company lost their jobs. Ironically, most of them were Cuban-American refugees and their descendants.
