The ONLY way that a sin tax can be even remotely legit is if it goes 100% to the "sin". Tobacco taxes 100% to tobacco-related medical treatment and/or tobacco cessation programs. I can live with that, but I still disapprove in principle.
If any of it goes elsewhere, then it's just sleazy picking the pockets of the politically powerless. We're supposed to be better than that.
