What a hypocrite. If I'm not mistaken he was the one buying CC's in Canada.

His wife must be the one sitting at the desk.

If you read the whole article, it is about cigarettes. You know cigars will follow. I don't smoke cigarettes (Fng sick) but I am tired of being taxed to DEATH

I still can't believe he's governor. I recently caught a late night showing of the first Conan on television. Watch that and then realize that the meathead lead star, who could hardly speak english, is now the governor of california.

What a backstabber... California is prime example of why warren buffet told the government to shove it when they asked for more of his money.

And thats why you see all the politicans lining up for this crap, they either don't smoke or the tax won't hurt them. You have to be rich to be in state or federal government. and thats why the system will allways be fuc*ed

Well, if they have to tax smokes I can at least appreciate it being tied to health care. It makes more sense than linking it to say - road repairs. Of course really only those using the product should benefit. What happens when, god forbid, there are no smokers left? Health care goes bankrupt? We need LONG TERM solutions. Social security anyone?

Oh right, next is junk food. Granted I'm kind of in favor of that. Processed artificial crap is not only bad for you, but inferior to real food. I'd make the same argument for cigarettes vs cigars.

I did not account for fries or a soda, either.
