In California, banning smoking in public facilities wasn't about customers, it was about the employees that had no choice but to be there.

Yes they did, they had a choice, they CHOSE to work there...

Banning it everywhere inside except bars made sense to me, it's A BAR, I mean come ON.

well indoor smoking i dont particularly care about, unless its in a bar. they shouldnt ban it in a bar. if people cared about their health so much, they wouldnt be getting drunk, since that is "bad for you" too.

not to be overdramatic, but this sort of thing is what caused the original revolution against england. excess taxation on things.

Re: Cigarette Prices in US

what about live shows at bars? and why does the smoking ban always have to be about health? just because i'm destroying my liver doesn't mean i should have to struggle to breathe while i do so.

Re: Cigarette Prices in US

kids aren't smoking like they used to so they've gotta raise the prices on the already addicted. luckily, i am not one of them.

my dad's pissed though.

Re: Cigarette Prices in US

yeah who cares. minnesota banned smoking indoors a couple years ago and it's great.

they are $5.50-6.50 here.

edit: my dad buys some small cigar in phoenix. he said they went from $3.50 a pack to 7.00.

I just saw that on digg.

The tax on RYO tobacco goes from $1.10 per pound to $24.78 per pound. That's more than 2,100 percent!

I don't care if you're for or against tobacco, that is just a fucking ridiculous tax for anything.

Re: Cigarette Prices in US

I'm (obviously) not down with raising taxes on anything, but since I don't give a damn about Ciggy's, I really don't give a rats arse...
