FFX tax agents raided our lobby deli last week. Seems the old guy running it was buying cigs at COSTCO and selling them at a slight markup. All taxed, of course.

But the COSTCO was over the county line, and while the tax rates are the same, the wrong county was getting the tax.

So they siezed all his cigs.

I remember when this was a free country...

I've been stocking up on loose tobacco since I found out about the further confiscation of my money.

Guess I'll wear these next time I go to the tobacco shop, just saying.
