Cigarettes price will be raising ten dollars of each brand. Unbelievable. It was on the tv the other day. They're doing so to get you to pay debts for president or to get you to quit smoking. Something like that, well nothing is going to stop me from smoking. If they are going to raise higher for all cartons than my budget. Then, looks like I am going to use a bag and mask although I desperately hate thief.
If this is true, then GOOD! I am tired of breathing second hand smoke from other people smoking at the bus stops and in other apartments. I had a neighbor who I share a wall with, and her smoke would come through the vents into my apartment. I would cough so much, but I found out a way to reduce the stink and to help me breath better - a bowl of vinegar in each room...I swear by it! But then she moved away two weeks ago, and I have not smelled cigarette smoke ever since, and I am happy, even though I miss her - she was a good neighbor, very friendly.
Maybe the $10 a pack will get people to decide to quit smoking just because they cannot afford it. Then maybe there will be less people dying of lung cancer. My good friend Mike died from lung cancer last May. They gave him a year, but he only lived two more weeks. I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.


I really wish everybody would stop smoking. I hope the higher price will encourage more people to quit. That would make me happy. VERY HAPPY.
