Well, it's a done deal for the cigarette tax increase again. Everyone but Maine smokers got off easy.
I heard from Rep Snowe-Mello. I was the only one in the whole state that she heard from. :( I couldn't do it by myself..... :(
Darlene,
You are the only person that I have heard from who do not want the
cigarette tax. The budget passed in the House by one vote.

They all say that. Just like they all say things like, "Well, the majority view is---" or, "Studies have shown---" and, "I don't know anybody who voted for Nixon."

I suppose a portion of that generated revenue will help support the children's Ritalin habit in public schools who might be normal children and stare out the window too much?
