I really only see negatives to doing something like this. My main concern is that it just simply adds more bureaucracy to our daily lives. I lean more towards the libertarian mind set, keep the Government out of my life. Tobacco gets taxed, but does it keep people from smoking?

If it’s about the money, why don’t we save several billion dollars every year, and make a heck of a lot more from legalizing and taxing marijuana for recreational use?
