I wonder how many ITunes users voted for tax increases on cigarettes in Jersey.

Democratic Governor Jon Corzine proposed the sales tax expansion earlier this spring to help the state to recover from a $4.5 billion budget deficit, an ABC News affiliate in New York reported recently on its Web site. The changes, along with a sales tax rate hike from 6 to 7 percent, took effect on Oct. 1.

I wonder how many ITunes users voted for tax increases on cigarettes in Jersey.

No matter what group the lawmakers finger to raise the taxes to balance their damn pork programs, it's just WRONG!  And to admit it bold face as well makes me sick!

All these years they come right out and say they have to raise cigarette taxes to balance their budgets.  Well, now that they aren't realizing all that tax dollars from smokers anymore, they are going after other groups.

Well, like I always said, Randall, "when they go after another group, they are leaving the smokers alone."  So they can have at!
