A story posted the other day described how drug dealers were now entering the bootleg cigarette market, because the profits are high and the penalties low.
Which makes sense, since selling 10 to 20 cartons per day at the streetcorner (what's that, an hour of work?) could easily produce $200 to $500 in cash profits.
Soon there will be gangland turf battles over black market smokes in NYC, and the NYPD will be diverted from sales of crack, ganja, and heroin in Washington Square and Harlem, to the "war on tobacco."
