Why? Export tariffs rarely serve much useful purpose: they shove supply around a bit, but they usually don't achieve all that much meaningful. I see no likely effect save to cause other countries to buy their tobacco elsewhere.
You pretty much answered that one for me. My only goal is to reduce the tobacco being grown in the US. Someone above suggested paying farmers to grow other crops, but I don't like that method as much.
What are your thoughts on removing the term limit on the president?
As for the constitutional amendments, I believe that eventually they will all be the law of the land. My only reason to put them in the constitution is prevent future legal attacks on them (sure, you could try to repeal the amendment, but that is much harder then filing yet another lawsuit)
