I guess now they're taxing Native Americans for distributing cigarettes which they haven't done previously. I guess it's three dollars extra for a pack of cigarettes. 1.50 for the state and 1.50 for federal.
Thoughts? Good, bad idea? I personally think it's bullshit. If they are going to tax smokers, then raise taxes for alcoholics or gamblers. |
