2nd- Cigarette taxes still through the roof so that the black market is thriving?
HEHEH, I may be a Canuck, but I at least got you humor.
The government is trying to privatize booze stores, although they are making plenty of money on it.
Smokes are the same as they are in a lot of states, and yes the black market is doing very well thank you, you can buy 200 smokes in a plastic bag for $20, was offered loose tobacco for a good price, guess who the guys partner was....... a politician. :-}}}}}
