We're going to raise the floor on the cost of a pack of cigarettes from $10.50 to $13 -- the highest price in the country.
He also loves his regulations

The e-cigarette industry is becoming the tobacco industry. That's why we'll have them licensed the same way as cigarette retailers.
And worse yet, he eats pizza with a fork

Hates poor people? More like he's discouraging bad behavior so our health care system doesn't have to pay the cost of more people suffering complications from smoking.

Well then that settles it. Everybody on welfare has to get a job now too cause I don't want my taxes paying for their food and shelter.

Do you honestly think this is about healthcare? Do you really believe that this is not about more revenue for the government?
If they really cared about the cost of healthcare, then why did they raise taxes on medical devices, over the counter drugs, and...uh...wait there was one more... oh YEAH healthcare insurance!

Hell you could make a killing just doing it out of your house in your own neighborhood

He said organized. Not selling it on the sidewalk in the public like a dumbass.
More like having an outdoors location where people get them and the local patrol cop is on the take.

Our cops will choke you to death for selling cigarettes without a tax stamp.
ETA: Damn it, I'm slow.

I dont smoke, The only people I see smoking are usually of a lower class who suffer a higher stress level and menial work environment facilitating boredom.. This will continue to punish lower income people under the guise of the government knowing whats best.
This will also further the black market for such items ..
Good Job NYC

Whenever I go (went) to festivals, I would pick up 8-10 cartons of cigs from either NC or SC. Sell packs at $10, bam, you've paid for all expenses plus a tidy profit.
