Millions for “smoking cessation programs” to lessen the medical costs? How is this a Stimulus for the economy?
Millions for "smoking cessation programs" to lessen the medical costs? I thought that was why they were hiking the taxes? And how is this a Stimulus for the economy?

You could almost say the same thing about the millions to research climate change. How does that result in good jobs for the "failing" middle class? Not sure. It does further the global warming agenda, though.
I do find that the benefits of fewer smokers won't be felt for years, and by then they'll perhaps be suffering from smoking-related illnesses and the benefit may very well cancel itself out.
