We already have a realworld example of this with cigarettes.
It doesn't work. Half of my neighbors sit outside and constantly smoke, regardless of the danger, regardless of the constant warnings, regardless of the tremendous expense via taxes.
And the tax never makes it back into healthcare, it's abused by politicians.
