Good for you! I might reach that point someday. I'm just not ready yet. My only vice and all that. :)
Officials acknowledge, however, that online cigarette sales are still commonplace, and they say that when they occur, the state and city are unfairly cheated of tax revenues.
Well, I know I do a lot of shopping over the Internet, and if the company doesn't have an outlet in Maine, then Maine isn't getting any taxes from my sale. Maine isn't bellyaching about losing THESE taxes, just taxes on cigarettes. Go figure.
