[QUOTE="Doc Manhattan, post: 47556, member: 341"] If the rumblings in NY are any indicator, it may be a backdoor way of cracking down on the legal grey area of mail-order cigarette sales by American Indian nations, and by extension the people who resell those products without paying taxes. (The exempted 10 oz. is a lot of cigarettes--about nine packs--so the legislation is definitely targeting higher-volume sales.) You can't ask a federal agency to enforce a state's tax laws--they lack jurisdiction, and would lose any court case. And interstate commerce and tax lawas are so complicated that it's not practical to make every postal clerk a paralegal. But you can eliminate the service that leads to the alleged violations of the laws. [/QUOTE]
