Zero is a narcississt and a habitual liar! Is there a list of his numerous
lies and broken promises?
Who is the real Zero!
“Well I wonder what Van (give them the wealth, give them the wealth) Jones thinks of this??”
Apparently “wealth” means “shaft” in newspeak.
If this health care fiasco isn't struck down, they can open up hospitals to provide first-rate, pay-for-service medical care.
“but in some areas”, ah, do you think this includes Indian Reservations? Don’t think so.
On the one hand, what the Indians were doing was legal, so I feel bad for them. On the other hand, they trusted Soetoro, so I don’t feel bad for them.
When people vote for a baby-killer, and he turns around and stabs them in the back, as baby-killers always do, it’s their own fault. They ignored the most basic, rudimentary justice by voting him in, so they have no beef.
And Soetoro keeps puffing away.
Can’t sleep either?
Then someone else, (not sure who) used similar threatening tactics to get Fex Ex and UPS to stop accepting shipment of Tobacco products.
Now this!
Boy did they keep this one under the radar as this is the 1st I've heard of it and I would not be surprised if it was introduced by someone from NY as they loose lots of money on taxes.
Guess I'll be stocking up over the next 90 days and thereafter, will have to travel to NY to get my deep discounts.
looks like they’ll be voting differently 11/02/2010
hmmmmmmmmmmm 11/02/2010 in numerology =7
I thought that was Eliot Spitzer too.
Great Oreo Father , LOL.
IIRC, it is a violation of most states' tax laws to buy reservation cigarettes and then transport them off the NA land -- but it is enforced only in some areas. In most, possession of cigarettes without the tax seal is a violation of the law. Maybe in some locations, allowances are made for people to bring untaxed cigarettes into the state, but I don't know of any personally.
So all-in-all (even though it is a naturally predictable that 0 would betray a promise), it's not such a bad thing to stop the trafficking in cigarettes. Sure, the tribes gain a chunk of change from tax dodgers, but what has that $330 mil done for the Seneca tribe? Many NA tribes benefit from their status to run casinos and sell cigarettes and other things that people can't legally buy in their state, but most evidence I've seen indicates that a lot of that money goes into only a few pockets.
The article says U.S. Mail. Does that exclude FEDEX or UPS?
This is a Nazi Regime, with a National Socialist dictator. Just because it isn’t German doesn’t mean it isn’t Nazi.
***..the tribes can then sell the cigarettes on reservation land at much lower rates than the local stores off the reservation.***
Oklahoma has lots of Smoke Shops. Wonder if this will affect them.
More than that I think there is something about profits that he hates.
Unfortunately for the Seneca I don’t think far northern New York state is good tobacco growing country.
grow it on another reservation
Then they would have to transport it outside reservation boundaries. Interstate commerce clause.
No. I have insomnia. But only at night.
