Doesn't one have to be 18 to have a credit card anyways?

Anyways, it's sad to see how a tobacco company takes the side w/ the high tax states against the retailer.

It's the responsibility of the CONSUMER to pay the appropriate sales tax, not the retailer.

It should be fun when Philip Morris and the FDA get their way with nicotine being listed as controlled substance.

A General Accounting Office report issued this week puts Internet tobacco sales in the United States at $5 billion by 2005 and predicts states with high tobacco taxes could lose $1.4 billion in revenue.

Wouldn't you think they could have seen the writing on the wall from a mile away, if not, they truly are stupid.
