They'll get it the same place the county does, anywhere they can.

Why not ALCOHOL/BEER?????  

That would make way too many grumpy folks.....road rage and all........atleast if the sheeple are tipsy/woozy no one would particularly care about the taxes......

just like street drugs(and pretty much anything your local MD is willing to give ya)----keep 'em 'happy'.....they wont know the difference when the merry-go-round operator changes as long as the horses all go up and down up and down around around around around........

besides alcohol can be obtained/made anywhere----I'm not too sure that it is that easy to grow tabacco in the northern states?????

Bathtub gin all around----although the government will find a way to tax the still,,,,I'm sure.....and THAT wont be pretty-talk about a 'tea party' to be talked about for generations to come.......

It won't be long b4 the governmennt will be telling us what brand of coffee to drink, how much alcohol we can consume while not driving, and what news we can listen to. Talk about a socialist state.

Funny how they raise the tax on cigarettes and project those funds to supplient their out of control budget. THEN...they use our tax dollar YET AGAIN to promote a 'quit smoking' hot line and tv ads. Please...someone tell me their logic here? They reaise the cigarette tax for more revenue, then they spend more revenue to encourage people to quit smoking...hence, if everyone quits smoking, where will they get the lost revenue from the cigarette tax? I must be missing something here? I think it is 'logic'!

I still don't understand why they'll tax cigarettes so much but won't add a nickle to a beer. Think of the $ they'd raise!
