Roll Your Own Cigarettes is going to be no more.

[DOC]

i roll my own smokes , yes by hand . never had a problem and it takes no time at all , perfect cig every time

When factory made smokes jumped from $25 a carton to $35 and then to $50 in a few months with no increase in value, (in fact it lost value because of that fire retardant that makes them go out then catches fire when you relight it) I tried rolling my own with a bag of tobacco and rolling papers. It seemed to work alright. But not for me. I like filters.
I'm going to invest in that Top's rolling machine I think. Seems like the pipe tobacco and tubes are going to be around still. Just not a fancy machine to load them together.
A federal judge in Ohio already ruled that a person rolling their on a machine isn't manufacturing and said roll on. I guess its going to take another law suit to the supreme court to get national relief this time.
This overall attack on peoples "bad habits" has to end.
I've already noticed that 7-11 has reduced their double gulp cups from a economical 60 oz to 40 and then 32oz. but still charge the same.
Its only because it doesn't affect them and they think they know whats best for everyone too.
Where do they get off? What kind of person thinks that they know what's best for everyone?

OK sorry if I'm confused, but are they now taxing the hell out of tobacco and papers? I used to roll my own at one point and you could buy the whole kit from a tobacco store- tobacco, papers, filters, and the little roller deal (simple two tubes with a strip of rubber between them that rolled perfect cigs every time). I lost the roller so I'd have to get a new one, but now is that going to be out of control expensive? Don't you just love libtards, they say they're for the little guy, yet they always raise taxes on stuff the little guy uses- cigs, liquor, old cars that get crap for gas mileage. Someone needs to point out how freaking stupid dems are for being "against the rich" but taxing the poor to keep them poor.

This makes me want to take up smoking just to spite the guberment.

When will it stop?

[Ah Pook]

I don't smoke. I can't stand the smell of cig. smoke. I have no problem with your right to smoke. The whole "sin" tax thing just pisses me off.
