Every pound of domestically-grown tobacco generates nearly $100 in state/federal taxes.
The hypocrites aren't about to close a valve on their cash pipeline.
BTW, they can all go to Hell, too.

New additional State tax on cartons of cigarettes in VT takes effect July 1st. Up $4.00 per carton, from $36 to $40. Don't buy your cigarettes here.

Anybody want to forward this to the WOD people?
[discostu and] Joe, you already pinged the best FReeper against the Wo[S]D...my Tiger! Hope he pounces on this one!

The profits in black market cigarettes will soon exceed the profits in other black market drugs with the added benefit (to the dealers) that the drug itself isn't illegal. The government will then of course deem it necessary to allocate more tax dollars to fighting the rampant and violent black market trade in tobacco.

I also wish these leeches a long and fiery retirement.
