The enemies of smoking have sought to deter smoking by raising prices, and that power is exerted through state and federal taxes. The serial-murder tobacco companies resisted by forming a myriad of anti-tax fronts and movements. Multiple investigations, lawsuits and trials of the Tobacco companies dragged 40,000,000 documents from tobacco company file cabinets into courtroom evidence. These documents have ultimately ended up being online and even google-able.

See these websites for links to courtroom evidence already put through the adversary legal process and established in their provenance:
