How’s he going to pay for it? The state budget isn’t one of his leveraged buy out deals. He doesn’t get to strip the revenue, load up the state with debt, and spin it off to die. We have a balanced budget requirement.


And a budget surplus


Budgeting may not be your strong suit. If you inherit $50k this year, is it wise to assume you will inherit $50k ever year and build your family budget around that?

It is not a tax on food, it is a tax on food purchased from grocery stores.


So, you mean those who grow all their food don't have to pay it? Great.

If food was more expensive people would make better, healthier choices about what they bought.


Sugar is quite cheap, it's even subsidized by the federal government to keep it cheap. Do you think this will have the effect you want if you increase taxes?
