Wow, I wish I'd thought of this earlier.

Here we go:
Cigarette Brand    % Tax increase                Reason
Marlboro                 5,000.00%                        We can get tons of money for this one.  
                                                             This is a crossover cigarette....sure, there are many "Marlboro" men, but
                                                             just walk into a laundromat or a bar, or even hang around at the unemployment line....
                                                             There are just as many Marlboro moms out there as well.  Heck, there are women
                                                             who use WIC checks to try and buy Marlboros.

Camel                   10,000%                             Why so much higher?  Simple...people who smoke Camels are basically asking God to kill them.
                                                               These things are so harsh and nasty, that Camel smokers tend not to live as long...so we need
                                                               to collect as much money as soon as possible.

Any Menthol          50,000%                             Why am I being to mean to those who smoke menthol, even menthol lights?  Here's why....
flavor                                                    THESE ARE DISGUSTING!!!!  Imagine smoking a peppermint patty....that's what these are like

Hash                     100,000%                           Look, I'll make standard marijuana exempt, because I believe in medical marijuana. But smoking
                                                            hash is like when Stewie watched Brian clean himself for a long period of time, and then said, 
                                                            "OK, you were clean 10 minutes ago....now you're simply on vacation"
OK, with all this money, we can accomplish one of two things:

A) All but the biggest idiots will quit, OR
B) The govt will raise enough revenue that Obama can have his health care plan
