I see SCHIP is back in the news.
Somehow last time around I failed to notice that it was slated to be funded by another cigarette tax.
I have a real issue with that. With funding things with cigarette taxes in general. Doesn't that, you know, leave our government with a vested interest in keeping the number of smokers high?
