listen up people
It just amuses the hell out of me that If I am the leader of a giant company, say a cereal company, with enough money I can go to Washington and get other cereals banned.
My cereals, under the name of General Goodies, are the healthiest ones and i will allow the gov't to control the ingredients as much as they want, just outlaw all the other ones, especially the colored ones w/ marshmellows and nuts and , ooh, even the ones w/ strawberries. We really want them to be banned so we get the money but we're gonna put it out as us trying to keep everyone healthier b/c they might have more sugar than us.
Well that's what the Marlboro Monopoly Act of 2009..excuse me, FAMILY SMOKING PREVENTION AND TOBACCO ACT of 2009, has done.
It has outlawed my cloves. I think i can still order them FROM out of the country legally but my nearby cigar shops aren't allowed to carry them anymore after this month. They came out w/ this cheap lil crap mini-cigar to take its place to get aroudn the bill, but I'm not buying that shit. Anyways. The main funding of this bill came from PHILLIP MORRIS!! AND GUESS WHAT FLAVOR WASN'T BANNED?!? I'll give you a hint...The Congressional Black Caucus is reported to have a big part in this ingredient remaining on the "ok" list...Menthol. And I'm serious people, I don't mean to be racist w/ that but that's what wikipedia said (and u know it's the end all be all of any info). Anywho. The guise of it all is they say "cloves" appeal to children. say What? I guess that's why you can't really find them anywhere else but in a cigar shop, and not many youngsters hang around there playin chess and hanging out smokin a stogey. No, my friends, the truth is that our politicians are handing over our diversified stock of cigs to choose from right to mr Marlboro man himself b/c he doesn't want anymore competition. Youth and Teens have nothing to do with it. If it did, then they'd be banning flavored liquors too. Bubblegum Vodka i hear is a big hit with the old crowd. Someone wanna buy me a carton of cloves? Ah, forget it, i'll order a carton over seas next year for my birthday. Bastard Obama. I flip you and your numbnut politician old men (and you too ted kennedy) the bird.
