I'm still puzzled by "no more cigarettes online" when I keep
finding websites like this:

cigoutlet.net

You can still get cigarettes online from offshore sources and websites (like cigoutlet). The PACT act shut down the native americans and other US sites selling cigarettes. Typically they send them over USPS one carton at a time, for the most part customs won't mess with it but it's a roll of the dice.

Funny you should mention cigoutlet. I would definitely steer clear from them - they were recently named in a lawsuit by the NY attorney general.

I don't really understand this, probably because I'm from UK, but seriously, lol? I'm extremely left wing and I don't agree with this. I think it's probably something I would expect the UK or Canada to do, as they have public health care systems (so if you're smoking, you're (within reason) damaging aspects of your health, so the tax you pay on cigarettes pays for that healthcare should you so need it and around it goes). But why America?

Please learn the definition of socialism before abusing the term in ignorance.
