Time Is Now for Cigarette Tax Increase - Indiana Chamber of Commerce

I keep hearing a proposal to raise cigarette taxes by $2 per pack on the radio.  I think this proposed tax will impact people with lower incomes the most so I am opposed to it.  

The proposal claims to protect people's health.  People should be free to make choices as long as this is not a major burden on the rest of society.

If you tax something too much then it could create a black market for the product.
