About a month or two ago, Minneapolis (not sure if it's state wide) integrated a .05 bag tax. It's suppose to help reduce waste in our landfills. Ok, I get it... again.. the financial burden goes on the public, not the business.
And as I look around the grocery store, see all the products that come with a lot of individually wrapped packages, I wonder how long before they start taxing our food.
And of course you have those that take advantage of the situation with bags at .07, .10 or more.
The tobacco tax here is bad enough... goes up twice a year... one increase for product and one for tax. 30 mil of that public money went to build the new Viking stadium. It would have been nice as a smoker to get a free ticket to a game for my tax...
We are becoming what we ran from over 200 years ago... except we have representation... Guess that's why they made corporations people... so when those politicians say they are for helping the people.... it's not a lie.
