With the new federal tax hike on tobacco, the price of a carton of Marlboros here in Texas just went to well over $50 a carton! I've smoked for over 50 years and have been struggling to quit. I now have to thank the folks in D.C. for the new tax. It's the straw on this camels back that's going to enable me to quit. How many are going to join me?

Two things do make me sad though: #1 Like all things D.C, the money won't be put to the stated purpose for the new tax, and #2 - The big tobacco companies are renewing their efforts to spread their cancerous plague in the third world countries amd China. They won't miss a beat or lose a dime.
