With their inability to be satisfied with only soaking nicotine addicts with 87 cents per pack of tax, the DemonRats want to tack on an additional $2.00 per pack. The end result should be obvious to anyone who understands real world market forces, something Dim-witted politicians pretend don’t exist. Smuggling of cigs from outside the PRC will become a booming business and the morons in Sacramento will receive zero dollars per pack.

‘Fat Tax’ Could Curb Nation’s Obesity Problem – Dems love to use tax policy to micromanage every aspect of our lives. As with all of their schemes of this type, the results will end up making the situation much worse.
Some states asking the tax man to get tougher – The more desperate States get for money, the more aggressive they will be in trying to squeeze as much as possible from as many people as possible. Under the DemonRat philosophy, governments must never be expected to spend less; but the little people in the real world will have to make do with less in order to make their financial sacrifices to the gods of Big Government.

Income tax payer an endangered species – Mark Steyn looks at the trend of fewer evil rich people being forced to support more and more people who are becoming dependent on government welfare programs. Reminds me of that old saying, “When you’re robbing Peter to pay Paul, you can always count on Paul’s support.” With more and more “Pauls” ganging up on the “Peters,” it’s obvious that this isn’t going to play out well for the successful.
Tax Returns of the Living Dead. 26 Tax Preparers Charged with ID Theft and Other Scams – Great idea for IRS to run sting operations to weed out crooked tax preparers.
Cigarette taxes rose in 14 states, nation’s capital last year; biggest boost was $1 per pack – Good to see that the exploitation of nicotine addicts continues unabated by the rulers in state governments who are themselves addicted to spending other people’s money. It’s also another example of how targets of fiscal rape don’t just bend over and take it. These higher taxes have resulted in a huge boost for the sales of cancer sticks over the internet and by tax free vendors, such as Native American trading posts, resulting in less actual money for the greedy State rulers.
