cigarette tax

I think that the tax is needed because there are a lot of people that no what cigarettes will do to the body but dont care because they are already addicted to them. The younger group especially wont want to buy cigarettes anymore because the people under 16 are not old enough to buy them and they dont have a job so it would probably stop a lot of the younger people from smoking. If this does stop you from smoking it might save you a lot of money as well some people spend over 200 hundred dollars on cigarettes a week.
