Your suggestion is very good but the taxes we collect on any of these i.e. the first two by way of excises duty get collected & deposited in the consolidated fund from where it get distributed for various government expenditure. For getting the total amount collected in such taxes by the government & spending it only on the purpose of the things you suggested can be worked out. The only problem lies with the third type of tax which you suggest i.e. tax paid by prostitutes as such there is no such tax imposed on this profession as this is profession is considered as illegal & against the public policy. Buy imposing tax on prostitution indirectly we'll be legalizing this profession, this is a debatable issue for the society , specially amongst social & legal organization first dealing with such profession, any unilateral action by government legalizing this profession will have retroactive effect on the society hence it requires lots of public opinion in its favor. Go ahead with such social debate; let’s see what results we get out of it.

Easy.
The taxes we receive on Tobacco sales are too meagre to cure Lung caner cases.
The taxes that we collect on alcohol are too and too meagre to treat our alcohol related diseases.
The Money that we pay to fight aids are far less than the taxes paid by the prostitutes et al.
It is the money that average indian pays for making a decent living is used by the government to combat alcoholism, smoking related diseases and AIDS

Politician only thinks about them-self and their family, it is a moral related one.-politician doe snot know it.
Politician have no conscious, if they have it they never
admitted tobacco and liquor in society
If government require for more money , and if there is a way to get it they can do anything

My answer is No. A politician's answer will be 'Yes'.Their action belittle their speech.
