Cigarette tax bill lands on governor's desk - Forbes.com

A bill to collect state sales tax on cigarettes sold by Indian retailers to non-Indian customers is now on NY governor's desk. Supporters believe collecting the tax would bring the state $400 million in revenues. Indian nations see the bill as an attack on their sovereignty and financial well-being.

Boy, are smokers ever a punching bag for tax shortfalls these days - seemingly everywhere. If people want big government then everyone should be prepared to pay for it. This is the very cowardly way out for politicians.
