Quotes from this article:

When doctors who have historically opposed smoking, stand with Philip Morris, you know it has got to be a bad deal for someone. If Philip Morris is supporting a tax on the tobacco industry, you also know it must be a good deal for them and the brands they sell. And it is.
Ron Tully, Vice President of National Tobacco, on Texas' new tax on raw tobacco products.
