Support raising tobacco tax

My throat cancer, a smoker's

cancer, left me with constant fatigue. I learned that knowing not to smoke

isn't enough. You have to know not to sit in it, either.

My limitations are now my husband's

burdens. After his being a POW in the Hanoi Hilton, I was concerned about

the long-term costs of the beatings and deprivations he had endured. But

it would be the costs of other people's tobacco smoke that would actually

cause him the worst pain in his life.

Smokers don't want to think

about the price paid by others, especially by the people who love them

the most. Somehow, 58 cents doesn't seem like too much to ask.
