Ok, for public health reasons, they keep tacking on more taxes to tobacco products. I understand that. But how about a different approach for the next round. Here's an idea. Taxe the individual additives. Test the cigarettes with some of the tax revenue already generated. Make it $.50 per additive per pack. Considering the number of additives some brands have, I think we'll see the additives go. Make the tax triple for known poisions like formaldahyde, cyanide, and ammonia. Perhaps the reasonable goal here should be to get the dangerous chemicals out for now.
