y'know, what puzzles me is why tobacco companies don't print the price on the pack, as in $1.25 plus state, federal, and loacl taxes, so that people will understand just how much of this goes to taxes, and get angry every time they buy cigarettes, other tobacco products, and alcohol.

Thank God for Free Republic where we can get this truth out there. But it must have something to do with the Tobacco Settlement Money that Big Tobacco has to keep bending over for the Attorney Generals. So, of COURSE they can't print the truth. It's up to us to point this out to everyone.
