NH man charged 23 quadrillion dollars for smokes


MANCHESTER, N.H. - A New Hampshire man says he swiped his debit card at
a gas station to buy a pack of cigarettes and was charged over 23
quadrillion dollars.

I knew Obama was going to fund the health care plan with cigarette
taxes but I didn't know he was going to do it all with one customer.


Probably not a bad idea for the US Govt to put a hefty tax on tobacco
products. Might help curb demand.
