Did it ever occur to our politicians that maybe people are flocking to Internet sites to buy cigarettes because our cigarette taxes are too high, and they'd likely collect more in taxes if they LOWERED them?

Those lucky enough to live near Indian reservations in NY can get their smokes a lot cheaper as well. I suspect legislators will keep trying to put a stop to that too, for the children.

Here's hoping if they try, the Indians raise holy hell! They are sovereign and do not have to comply with other government tax regulations.
