LOL Anyways, I toured the Hav-A-Tampa factory when I was a kid. It was really cool. I remember this Cuban woman that looked to be about 300 years old (I was about 8) smoking a giant stogie while she hand rolled cigars. I would guess it's all automated now. |

Quoting: Evil TwinI don't think we're fully socialist, yet. If Hillary gets elected, and the Dems maintain control of Congress, then... Man, are you ever deluded. We're presently a Plutocracy, headed straight for 1984 Fascist State. But keep living your partisan dislikes and delusions, thinking that there's any difference between either side of the coin. |

Mr. Predictor Senior Forum Moderator User ID: 245264 United States 07/17/2007 03:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I can't help it ... anytime I see the word "cigar" in a political story --- bubba and the fat girl come to mind "If there is a new fascism, it won't come from skinheads and punks; it will come from people who eat granola and think they know how the world should be." - Brian Eno |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 4910 United States 07/17/2007 03:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Who cares, who smokes cigars? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 238272Seriously, the ones who do have money so why cry for a 10$ bill That's not really the point though. If they can levy a $10 per-cigar tax, what's next? A 20,000% increase in income tax? It's just unreasonable. And, with "them" not listening to us, if you ask me it's getting close to "taxation without representation." Shameful. |

mercury2 User ID: 248687 France 07/17/2007 04:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Okay, forgive me for not having read the whole thread, maybe someone else pointed this out. You want to help sick kids, right? Sick, poor, kids. So you tax a product that supposedly hurts health, but not kid's health, it only supposedly hurts adult's health. SO - - why not connect the whole circle of health instead, and tax things that actually do hurt kid's health????? For instance SODA POP. A good start. A big fat tax on SODA POP to pay for poor kid's health insurance. A big fat tax on SUGARED BREAKFAST CEREALS. A tax on SWEET BAKED GOODS, WHITE FLOUR, SUGAR, and HYDROGENATED FATS. A tax on ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS and FOOD ADDITIVES of all kinds. Well you get my point, but of course anything with any kind of logic or sense to it, would never happen, so forget it. P.S. the whole idea of the government taxing tobacco products makes me so angry that I can't see straight anyway. All I can say is, DON'T GET ME STARTED. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 173402The United States needs reduced federal spending, not more. All Democrats should just switch parties now and support Ron Paul. (ex) Democrats for Ron Paul Yeah, useless trillion-dollar wars based on lies don't help the budget either. BOTH sides should be supporting Ron Paul. |
