Gotta love those sin taxes! (sarcasm) I even wonder if they realize that they're biting the hand that feeds them. And to compensate for smokers quitting, which is their excuse for taxing the heck out of cigarettes, they raise the taxes to make up for lost revenue. Let's not forget that the ends justify the means because it's "for our own good" (sarcasm)

Yep. I stopped paying them about 5 years ago. I won't go into further detail. However, the manufacturer that I purchase from is now being forced to add a fed tax stamp and that alone increased the cost to me by $4 per carton. If one more tax hit occurs on them I will be rolling my own!
