[QUOTE="Doublestandards, post: 6000481, member: 110123"] It affects the lower working class the most. I lived in a city that put a high tax on cigars. What did I do when I wanted a cigar on the weekend? Picked some up in a different city when I was there. Not as easy to do for someone without a car. Maybe I’m wrong when it comes to cigarette tax though. Wouldn’t be the first time I’m wrong. I have read it does reduce the amount of people smoking, and that’s a good thing overall, for people’s health and the environment I stand firmly against the sugar tax though. And plus, a guy who wants a big gulp would instead just get two medium cups most likely, and now we’re increasing single use plastic which is terrible for the environment It’s a point where liberals go too far in trying to babysit the population. The right is just as bad for other things though, the fact they’re still mostly not on board legalizing marijuana, it’s just silly, but they’re slowly getting there too [/QUOTE]
