Hmmm... I think heavy smokers will likely pay whatever to smoke to a certain extent. They're addicted. Yea it might curb some younger people smoking (possibly) but I don't think it will have a huge impact.

If people really do smoke less at least that's some long-term savings that the country makes paying medical bills for people who have lung disease or whatever that developed because of smoking.

Maybe they should put a huge tax on fast food too so Americans might be more prone to eating better.... and then we wouldn't be the fattest country in the world and there might be less cases of heart disease or diabetes or whatever that results from being really overweight.

Smoking is a disgusting habit anyway.
