We have lost every time California has tried to raise the price on a pack of cigarettes. It is because the Tobacco industry is a billion dollar industry and they spend their money to ensure it doesn't pass. Their key phrase is, "Everyone wants a cure for cancer, but Californians cannot afford it right now..."
Please! Here is an example of their public lying regarding tobacco use. They swear under oath that nicotine is not addictive nor will it cause cancer. It is completely asinine what the tobacco industry does to attract people to a product that serves to harm.
Prop 29 will change that. It will keep tobacco away from our children. And put us that much closer to finding a cure.
