True , but the tax on cigs is outrageous. If they proposed a tax anywhere near that it would be crazy expensive.Comes down to simple math for me.

Considering that freak Santorum almost got Ohio, I'm not holding my breath.

I just wrote an article about this on my blog. There's a dude named Robert Platshorn, a former smuggler who did 30 years in jail and is now carrying out what he calls "The Silver Tour", which is targeted toward informing senior citizens about medical marijuana. One of his Florida tactics was placing two billboards with his message on them in Broward County.
