Tax for cigarettes should go up at least $5 a pack. I love that new Cook County cigarette tax, it\u2019s great. Maybe some people will get the clue and stop. Maybe not. Nope, too ignorant for that, they\u2019ll just complain, maybe boycott.
\nBeing somewhat allergic and really annoyed by cigarette smoke I\u2019m rather all for a smoking ban and raising the taxes on cigarettes. I would like to have a smoke free bar, I could actually spend more time in there, and not have to leave so I can breathe. Also coming home smelling of smoke is not very pleasant. I\u2019m hoping next we can get the smoking ban state wide to get through. Look at it this way; at least we\u2019ll have less cancer?
\nOn another note in my daily commute to work I usually have to listen to Mancow in the morning. He had someone on who is suing the government or someone to get a law in place to make it illegal to say \u201cGot Bless You\u201d after someone sneezes. He says that is not diverse and forces your god on them. I guess this stems from an actual court case, surprising, but who knows what people will do in this country.
\nHe wants to make that illegal and what you have to say instead is \u201cYour God Bless You\u201d (or something similar, can\u2019t remember exactly). Either way that is BS, what is even better is the punishment for saying the illegal one is 3 days in jail for the first offence, $100 fine and 3 days in jail for the second offence, and the third offence they are still figuring out.
\nWhat has this country come to? I\u2019m telling you this comic<\/b><\/a> is going to be true some day in America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
