		<description><![CDATA[Before you pass a tax law on premium cigars, you should know about the premium cigar business. I&#039;ll give the brief explanation. Zero tax on Premium Cigars keeps business in the state of NH. If you impliment a tax of any size, you will force the NH state premium cigar business (consumers) out of the state. How? Mail order... The result of a NH tax is: more out of state mail order business and less NH in-state business. Cigar stores  will go out of business. More unemployed clerks and former business owners. Less sales of cigars in the state of NH. Less taxes collected by NH. NO MONEY GENERATED FOR THE STATE. People in Concord need to consult an industry expert before trying to pass taxes. Wake up! The Premium Cigar industry is WAY too small to tax. Do you even know?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow! Those bastards. They just keep going after tobacco and people keep bending over and taking it. Why? I don&#039;t get it. I know that tobacco isn&#039;t politically correct or anything, but is it ok to single out and bleed a group simply because you know that nobody will stand up for them?

As always, their actions are absolutely reprehensible.]]></description>
