“I’m certainly not poor - but sure don’t want to encourage this price gouging, either. (Gotta watch those “buy one - get one free” sales. They tend to almost double the ‘original price’ on those.)”

Yep. The buy one get one free sales aren’t always economical. We’ve seen it recently with BJ’s and Produce Junction, around here. Both places being economical and the cheapest for buying food/produce. Prices have gone up around here.

Seen it in restaurants too. Prices have increased dramatically recently.

Hmmm I wonder how thunderbird wine goes with that cheese? Since we will be taxed to death on decent wine.

Well, putting more nicotine in cigarettes would encourage smokers to smoke less, exchanging less harmful nicotine for far more harmful other ingredients. Note that cigarette manufacturers try to strictly limit the amount of nicotine in cigarettes to encourage smokers to smoke more cigarettes.

An odd secret of nicotine is that because tobacco chewers have higher levels longer in their bodies, that even after they quit chewing tobacco, they are not prone to become addicted to cigarettes.

Sin taxes...they don’t stop with what you hate but “progress” to what you enjoy. Ofcourse, you might be perfect and cheer on all nanny state sin taxes. :)

And what exactly I'm addicted to or pimping? You might want to get your facts straight before you pop off your pie-hole about $hit you don't know anything about.

You, sir, are a fool. There are better websites for you than this one. Try DU or Stormfront.

You’re addicted to Statism, behavior control and Big Government.

Socialism is a dangerous habit. Kills millions.

Quit now for your own good.
