Oregon has an initiative on the ballot to substancially increase cigarette taxes in order to provide healthcare "for the childrennnnnnnn". I think it's about 85 cents a pack. That would provide millions of dollars for children's insurance.
Now, if increasing taxes is supposed to reduce consumption on an item (which usually is the result), then how is the children's insurance program going to be funded if everyone ends up quit smoking?
Is there good logic being applied? I know I'm not the brightest bulb in the room, but I'm not following the logic?
I forsee a carbon tax on corporations in the offing. Which in essence is a tax to consumers as NO corporation pays taxes. It's just tucked away to make people think big evil corporations are paying it. In the end the average taxpayer picks up the tab.
