'Hmmm.... I don't make 6 figuire income yet Democrats are directly responsible for making this middleclass boy (me) $50 a month poorer due to their tobacco tax and now I hear they are passing another tobacco tax?
And please don't tell me "just don't smoke"......no it is Democrats who took $50 a month out of my lifestyle.And what is this I hear about them wanting to pass a "carbon" tax that would make everybodies power bill go up?
Seems to me rich people won't be effected by their taxes though huh?,Rich people don't care if they have to pay more for power or cigarettes.......
All you smokers get together and vote for libertarians.
My state recently passed a cigarette tax increase to fund a trauma system.
To me it doesn't seem smart to fund something important like a trauma system on a revenue source that isn't 100% reliable.
OP - my heart bleeds beet borscht and my lungs rejoice. Suck on them cigs and become an expensive but self eliminating problem.
Well Greg thanks for the well wishes,although all of the rest of you think you are immune to being taxed on life and lifestyle?Just wait and see......
And let me ask you Greg,would you rather live 100 years because you were nannied and forced to live a certain way or live shorter in years but the way you wanted to live?

$50 a month? Wow! My heart pumps Kool-Aid.
On the other hand, millions of people have lost much, much more - home and stock values - thanks to the Republicans.
SOME OF YOU JUST DON'T GET IT,it is so easy for you to demand others pay or change their lifestyle when you don't agree with or it doesn't effect you but you don't seem to realize you are going to get hit up somehow also and then you'll cry......
