Good... Eff the state with its tyrannical overtaxation extortions. Starve the beast.
In NY. state tax is $4.35 a pack...in Mo. it's 17 cents a pack..... Lots of money to be made with that kind of differential..!
I am from Ky, had an uncle who lived and worked in Mich. When he visited Ky he would load his trunk with smokes and haul them back. It paid for his trip. Too late Feds, he passed a few years ago. Have an aunt and uncle who live in Del. and they could save a ton but they are a little to spineless to try.
Had an employee who hauled whiskey and beer and he managed to send nine kids thru college on the profits. One is now the president of a local college. Our employee is gone too. He was a good man.
