Tax and Spend....Smokers Paying The Price!

I'm wondering how the smokers in our country are feeling about Obama and the rest of the Democrats in Congress right now? April 1st, Democrats raised the PER PACK tax on cigarettes from 39 cents to $1.01. That's an increase of 62 cents per pack or $6.20 per carton, OUCH.

Ok, if you know me, you know that I am probably the most anti-smoke person you know. I'm not really going after the smoking thing here. What I'm going after is that I've been wondering how people are going to blame the Republicans for this when we have Obama in the White House and Democrats running Congress? Remember what I said before the election? Tax and spend, tax and spend. The Democrat mantra. Tax and Spend!
