Why we cannot tolerate ANY tax on vaping products

[DrMA]

«The rise in cigarette excise taxes over the past 15 years should provide a warning to those who think once a tax is on the books in a state, there won't be efforts to raise it slowly over time. Minnesota's tax on e-cigarettes began at 75 percent and is now 95 percent. Some taxes are far more damaging than others. But the fact remains, it is much easier to fend off new taxes than to fight higher taxes. Just ask smokers.»

any tax on any thing e-cig here in Minnesota is for pre-filled carto's only.
this is supposed to be at the wholesale level.
i am not certain even this is being collected as they expected the
tobacco wholesalers to pay it. the in store prices of cigalikes
is barely above internet pricing and there are no tax stamps
on V2's,Blu's or any other i have noticed.
the regular state sales tax is paid at the retail level.

from the land of ten thousand taxes regards
