Probably not.

Today, at the Missouri Ethics Commission, from the folks who want to preserve Missouri’s least in the nation status for tobacco taxes:

I sense a little less enthusiasm (cough, cough, hack, hack). Probably not.

The opponents to raising Missouri’s last in the nation tobacco tax showed us a few very interesting details in their October quarterly report filed today at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

missouri, Proposition B, tobacco tax, yard signs

Yard signs for the folks opposed to increasing Missouri’s least in the nation tobacco tax – spotted in front of the right of way at a convenience store in west central Missouri:

When is too little next to nothing?

Paid for by the Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association PAC. What, people won’t patronize

establishments if they can’t get the cheapest smokes? As if spicy jerky isn’t enough?

I dunno, it just seems so grassrootsie. From a corporate point of view.
