So...NY has $5/pack tax on cigs. $5/gal tax, anyone?

I'm a flat tax girl, myself...so it doesn't apply.

Why not? if 25% of the pop can pay $5/pk for their sins, why not 100% of the pop for equal harm? Sounds pretty flat to me.

A company I used to work for banned smoking in the parking garage - I immediately quit. Clear indication I was working for idiots.
