They do not want to admit that it's not about confusing tax laws, it's about the fact that smokers may actually be buying less cigarettes because of prohibitive taxes and you can't have that because it takes money AWAY from the state. They finally figured it out that these stupid taxes screw them over.

Your right, there buying less smokes and getting them from the internet which means less money in their coffers. If they would lower their taxes and be competive with the internet prices they would have more money to play with...But that wouldn't be Politicly Correct...
