				          I quit smoking in the Summer of 1983.  Before that I was smoking 3 to 5 packs of unfiltered Lucky Strikes per day.  I had the worst 'smokers cough" ever.  That was my primary motovation to quit.  Back then, cigarettes were 75 cents a pack, or $7.50 per carton of 10 packs.  I thought that was getting too steep, so that was another motovation to quit.  
I'm sure glad I did.

				My state pays the highest of the nation's taxes. I don't smoke but I do think it's ridiculous.
At the Cigarette store I work at, you'd pay $9.44 for a pack of Marlboro.
You'd be paying close to a hundred bucks for a carton.
If you want the "cheaper packs" you'd be paying a little over 7 bucks for a pack, and about 75 bucks for a carton.
A lot of people have been going to the Indian reservations, New York state wants to fight it, but the Seneca Nation is a Sovereign nation. There's no way they'd get away with it.
