    Tax,tax,tax and more taxes are coming our way. They don't even realize that this is a tax on the poor!


    Starting today smokers will pay an extra $1 per pack for cigarettes.

    The increase is expected to generate more than $900 million a year for cancer research and to help with the cost of Medicaid.

    The increase comes just three months after a 62 cent federal tax increase.

    Many health advocates are hoping the extra cost for cigarettes will encourage more smokers to quit.

    Used for cancer research and medicaid? BULLSHIT! We all know this money will be directed right into Obama's "Fuck The US Up!" general fund.
