Bye Bye Drink Tax
From Tom Paine:
Friends Against Counterproductive Taxation (FACT) is attacking the moronic Drink Tax on two fronts: (a) a revived lawsuit challenging the Constitutionality of the tax: and, more important, (b) an effort to place a referendum on the repeal of the Drink Tax on the ballot in November. http://www.bizjournals.com/pittsburgh/stories/2008/04/28/daily39.html?ana=from_rss
Not surprisingly, Kevin Evanto, mouthpiece for flailing County Diminutive Dan Onorato, poo-pooed the referendum and lawsuit as “publicity stunts.”
We’ll see. The good news is that fate of the Drink Tax is out of the County Diminutive and his henchmen’s hands. The voters will dispatch the ludicrous tax faster than Brenda Frazier had to apply for Social Security.
Time to start looking to Plan B boys. Maybe, in your creativity, you could submit a list of new taxes to Harrisburg which includes a 10% tax on cheap poly-blend suits. At least then the County Diminutive and his cronies would share the pain of an idiotic tax.
