Re: Wis Cigarettes, a buck more
No wonder Jim Doyle has such a oddly shaped head. It's must be holding a "Giant Brain" !
I think the price increase amounts to taxes. The tax money collected will go toward smokers health care, and funding smoking cessation, and education programs. Yet, an underlying effect will be smokers snuffing the butts, that is, quitting with the tobacco. If people stop smoking, the tax revenue dries up, and the preventative measures will lack funding. If the educational preventative measures are gone because of lack of tax revenue to fund them, how will the people coming up know that smoking is detrimental to their health?
Tax them till they bleed out...that appears to be Jim Doyle's political philosophy.
