Most of the people ordering cigarettes online are buying them in enormous quantities and reselling them. It is $75 million in tax money they are taking right out of our pockets.

So.  You are from New York.  Probably NYC.  By taking the taxes out of "your pockets," are you just a little afraid that with the loss of revenue from the smokers, that maybe.............just maybe the City will be taxing something 'you' love pretty soon to make up for the loss of money?  Sounds like it to ME!

Sorry, but it serves the Prohibitionists right that they are losing tax revenues thanks to Closet Boy Bloomingidiots "War on Tobacco.
