Once the kiddies are good n addicted, I like to burn them with a cigarette as a brand just so I don’t waste time trying to addict the ones I already addicted.

How right you are. I’m growing my own tobacco. Easy to do. Curing is another story.

Are you really a FReeper or did some elitist yuppy hijack your account?

You must be a chick. Caught your kids smoking did you? Instead of taking responsibility you are blaming others. Yep, Your a chick.

The teens will not bother with cigarettes and skip right to the hard stuff. I used to be a teen, so I know.....ha ha ha

Anywho, this over a dollar a pack difference is at the very LEAST going to slow me down if I don’t go ahead and quit altogether.Cigarettes are now $8+ per pack here in New Yorkistan.
I NEVER buy them here.
There are ways to circumvent these thieves.
But I never do it personally.
Honest, Governor Patterson, Senator Schumer, Senator Gillibrand, and Mr. Tedisco/Murphy whoever the hell wins.
Honest.

I smoked pot years before I started smoking cigarettes.

I’m all smiles that if not today, eventually, you’ll $0.40 pay more for that cigar. Bummer dude.
And of course less kids will take the habit up.

I don't believe addicting teenagers is a conservative value.
How about alcohol tax increases to save teenagers? I don't want them getting addicted to that either. How about junk food? That causes fatness and heart disease. How about sodas with caffeine and sugar? Also not good. How about swimming? People drown you know.

If children smoked it would help pay for their own health care.

No one is addicting teenagers.
I have four grandkids and none of them smoke. Four kids and only one one smokes. My hubby and I both smoked for years. Hubby died in 2006, not caused by smoking.
I still smoke and so healthy at 79 the Dr.s hate me. You need a attitude adjustment and stop blaming smokers for addicting young people.
