Post by: Kilroy on April 23, 2010, 03:23:31 pm Michigan goes smoke free next month, so I'm waiting for the sucking sound from the Capitol when revenue from cigarette taxation (currently one of the highest in the state) drops.

Post by: FDNY1975 on April 23, 2010, 04:48:38 pm Here in NY we have been smoke free in any public area Bars, Restaurants, etc for a few years now. Now the Gov is trying to pass a 18% tax on soda and sugary drinks.
