don't smoke got
WTF is going on with the prices of smokes. I spent $6.50 for a pack of Malboro lights Saturday. I asked what the deal was and the first thing out of their mouth was "don't blame me" hahaha. I guess they have been getting a ear full. The lady said they are going up another dollar next month. She said it was a TAX. If thats the case they are getting raped and every smoker should stop buying smokes for good and watch the economy get butt hurt even more.
I buy 3-4 packs a year. I can't imagine smoking a pack a day. Thats over $2,000 a year in smokes. Holy . When I smoked in college on a regular basis 12-13 years ago they were under 3 bucks, I think they were $2.50.
The Goverment is nailing smokers hardcore if indeed its a tax.
don't smoke got
Sorry pervert. I should have said cigarettes. I am not talking about sucking like you do.
I wouldn't care if they charged $20. anyone who smokes more than a train crying about raising the price.
save this talk for your bath house friends
Why do u have a guy smoking in ur pic? Just curious.
You should give a . Its a tax and its ripping off USA citizens because people like you "just hate it". I hope you don't drink or smoke dope. I really hope you don't ever have a beer while watching ur lil mavericks play.

yeah, Obama signed this new tax. it goes up another 65 cents
it's a bad habit that needs to die out. the older generation of smokers were lied to and they got hooked on a bad, stinky, cancer causing habit.
Kick the habit. Gotta break the chain somewhere.
Is BlackSwordsMan code for sucker. Do you get a thrill when the circus freaks deepthroat a blade. You sick er. Stop sucking dudes s.
Do you have something stuck up your ass?
Not quite a $1 increase ($0.62) and your friendly cigarette manufacturer is screwing you over by passing on the increase early:

A big jump in the federal excise tax on cigarettes – from 39 cents a pack to $1.01 – is now being factored into prices charged by the major tobacco companies in advance of the April 1 effective date of the new rate.
Camels irratate the out of my throat.
Anyway, I'm going to be forced to quit smoking. This has finally become to expensive for me.
I wonder if and when weed will go up in price too?
Do you?
Hate to bust your bubble, but it's the young who have gone back to smoking in a big way, even with all the knowledge of how bad smoking is for you:
I don't smoke. i don't like the smell of smoke but if they wanna kill them selves...what do i care.
I believe all smokers have are oral fixations. Put something else in your mouth
I hope everyone quits at the same time. This rise is not for health care for daily smokers, its about getting money from people without pissing off the majority. Whats better than nailing smokers. You have people like smoker and dirkmvp jumping down the smokers throat.
What does that have to do with my point?Hate to bust your bubble, but it's the young who have gone back to smoking in a big way, even with all the knowledge of how bad smoking is for you:
I never said "The young are not smoking"
I said the old generation was lied to and misled and it needs to die out.
That is all true, i never said the old are the majority. I merely said the old were lied to and misled and then I posted pictures of ads of their generation
Your point is a strawman.
It's called "drawing a rational conclusion from the statement being made," President Clinton.
In which case, you drew the wrong conclusion, President Bush.
There was no WMD. I never suggested anything about who is the largest majority of smokers, so your rationality behind it is just a false assumption that I somehow believed the old generation was the biggest percentage of smokers. I posted smoking advertisements from the 1940's and 50's, the large majority of that generation died by now. I was merely pointing out that smoking became increasingly popular in those years because of that generation that was misled and lied to.
You took your own assumptions, drew conclusions, and went to war with my quote. You came complete with graphs and an invasion force.
Wrong conclusion, Georgie.
The last price hike was done by the manufacturers to counteract the loss in sales from the impending tax hike. The April 1st tax hike, which I believe is $.61, is to pay for the $35 billion Obama wants for uninsured children.
If everyone quits, then we'll end up paying more in the long run due to the increased life expectancy of smokers. Plus, they'll need to make up that lost tax money from somewhere.
Roll your own.
<<-- glad she quit.
Due to the economy, some states are mulling over the idea of raising the tax on all tobacco products.
In Michigan the price will go from roughly $20/lb to $70/lb with all the added taxes.
Holy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
