federal highway bill with a section that redefines tobacco manufacturers to include any business with a roll-your-own cigarette machine and taxes those products at the same rate as packaged smokes

Seems like a perfectly natural place for the fedguv to redefine what it means to be a tobacco manufacturer. My disdain for the administration and the GOP congress who passed the bill knows no bounds.

While it sounds nice to blame the current resident and congress, this $#!t has been going on for decades, centuries even.

The only way to stop it is to amend the Constitution that forbids the practice. No more riders.

Not to mention the previous GOP Presidents.

99.999% of Democrats are horrid and at least 75% of Republicans are.

Sadly, this country is finished.
