105 JillLancasterOHThey need to increase liquor sales tax each time they increase tabacco!
106 MelissaHolleyWVI think taxes on tobacco are plenty high enough,and we the peoplethat are tobacco users are fed up with the smoking bans, so why should they raise our taxes, if the government want people to stop smoking then just quit making them,that way it will not only hurt the economy, but it will also hurt the federal government.
107 jamesgriffithVAwe need jobs!tax beer&wine.tobacco taxes are too high now!!!!!
108 AmberMinshallOHI think it is unresionable to charge taxes on tobacco and not alcohol.

110 KimberleeBishopWILegislators should consider taxing alcohol as much as they do cigerettes. They do as much damage to our youth and adults as cigerettes
111 PatriciaCoppockOKWhy should smokers pay MORE taxes and then be told where and when they can smoke. Also, it is not a fair tax.

114 CatherineDayMNWhy discriminate against smokers with a tax increase? Why not tax the fools who talk on thier cell phones while driving, or the alcohol sold in this country, try to tell me these things don't kill and cause health problems!
115 BrysonJonesCOSmoking will not go quietly into the night!
116 ConnieWitherington-FraserNCPlease oppose the tax increase on tobacco. We should be taxing alcohol and not Tobacco. I haven't heard of anyone killing someone while smoking a cigaret while driving but thousands while driving under the influance of Alohol Stop punishing smokers and go after the drunks.
117 LouiseDeCarloPA80% of secondhand smoke tests show no significant risk, therefore, why the smoking bans?

124 davidmerrellNYeven tho i do not currently smoke i feel that enough is enough as far as cigarette and gas tax are concerned
125 MarkCaldwellOHI agree with the petition. The general sway of everything that is happening in the government lately is discouraging and often times frightening.
126 dalemillerOKthis is rediculous ! why does the american people not have a say when it comes to raising taxes on tobacco ? why does this not have to come to a vote of the people ? why is the u.s. govt. singling out smokers and how are they getting away with it ?? why are we not allowed to stand up for ourselves ? somebody please tell me !!
