Just Not Getting It

Marshall Fitzpatrick, firefighter and cigarette smoker:

That’s $40 in groceries and $40 toward the electric bill, that’s $40 toward whatever. When you put both of us together, that’s $80 we’ve saved [by buying cigarettes in Indiana instead of Michigan] going toward our bills which helps us out.

How about you and your girlfriend save even more by, you know, quitting smoking entirely? You choose to smoke, and Michigan chooses to tax your vice. Give up the vice or quit your bitching.
