nice try at deflection/distraction.

the tax is on SMOKERS. If "the poor" choose to smoke, then they need to pay the tax. You are simply exploiting "the poor" to rationalize why poor widdle you shouldn't have to pay a tax on something that creates public expense.

don't want to pay the tax? don't buy cigarettes! problem solved!
