Well, we just cant let this stuff get outta hand either (its already FAR past that). People are only so strong, so if you plunk a fast food place everywhere they look, of course people are gonna abuse it.
So, you are suggesting that the Government knows what best for you, is this is?
Why not let the PEOPLE - AMERICANS - decide what is best for them?????

We got a wholesale increase of $7 per carton on Marlboro's here in Illinois....we NOW have to retail a pack of Marlboro's for 4.69 plus tax and it comes out to $5.04....some aholes in this area are charging 5.69 per pack with tax.The gouging of Americans continues no matter what it is.
Here's a pic I took near Chinatown in NYC last June. They were having a sale on Camels.
At the convenience mart out on the Jersey Turnpike where they were playing to a captive audience a pack was going for $12 and folks were standing in line to buy them.

There are certain things not worth a path trip to Jersey.
There aren't many things I'm against but smoking is one of them since smoking has pretty much killed everyone in my family to date. It's a legal crack and it should be a felony to make cigs as well as sell them.

Over FIVE DOLLARS for a PACK of cigarettes? OMG! Who knew? I don't smoke, so I didn't realize they were so expensive. How many cigarettes are included in a pack?
