Lawmakers
in North Dakota are considering proposals to raise the tax on cigarettes and
dip by as much as $1.10 per pack and $1.96 per tin. If passed, the state tax on
cigarettes and dip would skyrocket over 200%. This proposal would only compound
the financial hardship retailers are facing right now.
Increasing
a tax in the middle of an economic slowdown is a bad idea; it just hurts jobs
and taxpayers.
