[QUOTE="MisterE, post: 396231, member: 820"] As soon as RYO became repackaged as pipe tobacco, the writing was on the wall. The government will close the loophole and enjoy the increased tax revenue. It's just a matter of time. One look at the graph, and you can see [i]exactly [/i]where the tax hike will take place, too. Since 2009 pipe tobacco sales have skyrocketed, whereas RYO levels have dropped steadily. There have been efforts by the industry to clearly define the parameters between pipe tobacco and RYO. I know Greg Pease (among others) was involved in drafting proposals to establish what those were, too. I haven't heard anything about it lately, though. [/QUOTE]
