Taxes are not to blame for everything that goes wrong in the world. Rand Paul is incredibly stupid.
Democrats are so adorable. The drug war has failed but the creation of black markets for cigarettes is a great idea.
America is in awe of such intelligence.

Excellent point. The left has been on the warpath vs cigs but thinks pot is the bees knees
Ah, yes, the cigarette tax pioneered by noted Democrat Michael Bloomberg.
I sense a pang of sarcasm.
It may not be well noted now but I am pretty sure Bloomberg was a noted Democrat until he decided he didn't want to go through a Democratic primary to become Mayor.
Also his present affilitation aside, he is clearly at the very least center left in the American political spectrum, not to mention decidely statist in an era when the right is defined by opposition to gov't. I should note, that one of the last ads Tillis ran against Hagan was that she supported Bloomberg's attempt to take away the average Joe's guns whilst Billionaire Bloomberg is protecred by armed guards. Don't know how accurate it is (probably not at all), but it probably had some impact considering the final result.
