Write to your governor and senator (their addresses are in the phone book) because come April, when they put more tax on cigarettes, etc., we won't be able to afford to smoke.
I know smoking hurts us, but if someone gets drunk behind the wheel of a car and hurts or kills someone, who is going to stop this, or over-tax them?
Now, when we all quit smoking, look at all the job losses there will be: tobacco farmers, people who package them and tobacco stores.
Now, aren't there enough people out of work? This country has enough problems without some people causing more.
So, pick up pen and paper and start writing; leave us smokers alone!
