Why pass our overdue budget when we can just jack up the taxes on tobacco?

100% agree with you. This entire shit whole country is just pushing the seperation between rich and poor further and further.

If this tobacco tax was passed next thing will be an even more ridiculous Alcohol tax. NY is quickly working its way to being the shittiest state in the union. All these taxes and bull shit and the roads still suck balls, the cops pull anyone over for any assinine little thing cause “the state is broke”, gas is a good 40 cents more expensive than any surrounding state and really we have nothing to show for it at all.
