Stogie Commentary: Taxing Away Central American Jobs

It’s pretty rare that we come across a video solid enough to post, particularly since poor quality, pointless videos are a dime a dozen on the web these days. But the following is truly exceptional. It documents how the looming SCHIP tobacco tax hike would completely wipe out hundreds of thousands of the best jobs throughout Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic.

For more information on a wise strategy to combat the bullshit “for the children” mentality, be sure to check out our previous posts on Estelí, ammunition, and globalization. And please forward the video along to as many people as possible – especially to those who claim to care about the poor.
