I have a Native American store about 1 mile from me...across the state border. I can get their brand, comparable to Marlboro, for under $18 a carton, or Marlboro instate for $27 to $35 per carton. Funny, I don't feel one iota of guilt driving that 1 mile.

Well, the lawmakers sure have no guilt everytime they ban, try to control, restrict and raise taxes on a legal commodity. They want to make adults who choose to smoke carry the weight of the state on their backs. We are working to stop this harassment.

Considering that a carton used to cost $2, back when gasoline was $.29 a gallon, perhaps we should consider decriminalizing tobacco. Let everybody grow their own.

I just bought a carton of Marlboro Lights just across the border in Mexico....$13.00 and they were the expensive brand...others were as low as $8 a carton. I think there is a 3 carton limit per person to bring them back into the U.S., but it's so close, I just bought 1. Local smokes per pack are $3.65 each. Any guesses how long before common sense returns to America?

I think we'll be living on Mars before that happens.

Wow! I was thinking of trying the internet.

I reckon I will just stick to my cheap cigarettes. I was mad when the taxes went up again but I pay $14 for a carton of Patriot cigarettes. That is with the taxes.
