Want evidence that our new governor...coronated by the NY City Demonrats is not a clear thinker?
Whenever they place new and outrageous taxes on any commodity, the reservations cash in on the politician's stupidity.
I of course, I don't smoke or drink alky, but if I did..I would drive about 20-25 miles down to the Reservation and buy my smokes & drinks in quantity. There the Seneca Nation has a tobacco processing factory that covers several acres..right on Rt 417...and I say, "more power to them"! They make all kinds of tobacco products, and stores in town also sell booze, since the tax is apparently a large part of that price.
They make their own brands of cigs..some named after Seneca clans, such as the Heron..
Still, the state it seems, is continually giving the Indians a hard time, apparently out of spite. Smokers tell me the reservation's best is equal to the best sold elsewhere.
National btrand cigs are sold there too, but most seem happy with the Seneca rolled brands.
Interstate #86 runs through the Res, and every few years it seems that if the state gets too abusive,
interstate Rt #86 gets blocked with burning tires etc. Still it seems that often when a greedy
governor takes office...he/she starts jacking their jaws about cigarettes and casinos, just trying to break more treaties which they made..
