[QUOTE="Jevverrett, post: 564130, member: 3706"] I’m not deathly opposed to that. Pipe tobacco is a very niche market, and as such doesn’t produce much tax revenue. I think we probably represent less than 4% of the national market by weight. It doesn’t represent a scourge on health nationally, and won’t raise the kind of money they looking for. At least without an undue burden on consumers. Which is why I think it may be an oversight, kind of throwing things at the wall. If we don’t make our case known to our representatives, we can’t complain when a 1lb bag goes from $40 to $90. [/QUOTE]
