yeah thats ridiculous. i mean like he said 1500% is ridiculous. maybe like 15% or something like that but, yeah you cant raise the taxes on anything else 1500% without having some sort of coup on your hands.
The tax problem is not just beer -----its government not cutting back and balancing their own budget------time for a Tea Party ------ and a new look at Nanny State Government :):):)
They shouldnt be drinking booze anyway. They can live a healthier life from drinking water. No one is forcing them to drink. If they dont like the beer tax, DONT BUY BEER!
just what we need! More alcoholic drunks! Booze kills so many people, ruins lives and is so detrimental to health that if they can charge as much as they can for it to help deter people from drinking, thats what they need to di.
No sympathy from me, assholes. You raised the taxes on cigarettes to the point at which I quit smoking! Congratulations! Lucky me. Now it's your turn to quit a vice. I'd laugh like hell if this tax passed.
Oregon wants a 1900% increase-although they haven't increased the tax in almost 40 years- and spend over 5 billion dollar's per year in alcohol/drug rehab programs------lets cut all rehab programs-lay off all the college trained help and not tax beer ------so some want to be "messiah of beer"can drink his college years away :)
Otis next door will hve bathtub gin for 20.00 per jar. Surrounding states will profit from their stupidity too. The new economy would be based on people smuggling lessor taxed goods into the state for cash they wont pay any taxes on.
Oh, fuck beer. If you're worried more about your booze than anything that REALLY matters, maybe you should start drinking water and stop killing all those few choking brain-cells that you have left in that drafty plane-hanger you call a skull.
Actually I do understand what a tax is. If you tax beer heavily (like,say,1500%), people won't buy it, so the people making it and selling it will lose their jobs.
Well, that sounds more like a personal problem for you. Myself and the rest of the people who enjoy beer too much to be scared off by an extra fraction of a dollar ain't gonna stop buying it.
If you honestly think thats going to stop anyone, maybe it's you who should stop drinking. It seems to be effecting your ability to think properly.
"think people will stop buying beer because of a tax?"
They wont be able to afford a 1500% tax! They will want to buy it but only a democratic trust fund fascist pig will be able to afford it. Yet another elite privilage for the few.
No, they will buy homemade bathtub gin from otis next door for 20.00 per jar instead. You progressives are probably the worlds dumbest people. There was a time when people like you banned all alcohol outright. It didnt go away, it became the economy instead thanks to the massive organized crime profits it generated.
"College republicans always act and dress like they are rich. They only care about the rich."
Watch the video again, dads trust fund is buying way too much crack. A 1500% tax would make it so only your class could afford to drink a beer. The right is protecting the working class on this one.
Why are you fascist democrats so intent on limiting people who work? What did we ever do to you? You can go fuck yourselves, we are almost the entire military. We have a greater right to be here!
Just buy less beer, then. Honestly, it comes down to a state that used to have a surplus of money and now has a huge deficit, to cuts to education, and you are cribbing about not being able to buy cheap beer. This is freaking hilarious. There are much better causes to protest over. I think he was smiling because it's hella stupid of you. I initially thought this was some satire/irony-based joke.
Political issues don't always have to boil down to "republicans love everyone" and "democrats suck."
Do you honestly fucken think that people will buy ANY beer if it's taxed at 1500%? Hello? You seem to think that people are going to say "ok well we're going to buy beer anyway". Also, people will lose their jobs if this tax increase goes through and you're OK with that? That's pretty "hella" stupid of you.
They will create another prohibition era crime wave. Some democratic peoples tax threats towards alcohol have gone as high as 20,000%. Imagine the danger of driving the budweiser truck if each bottle of beer in your trailer was worth more than a gold bar. The tax wont increase revenue, it will build a multi billion dollar organized crime trade instead. We dont get revenue from them.
Lee Wolf, the correct response to the under age drinking question, is that the age of the average college student in California is 27!! The average age of a community college student is 29!!
Doesn't this idiot realize that if he increases the tax THIS much, it'll only lead to decreased revenue because a) less people will buy beer at that enormous rate and b) businesses won't make nearly as much? He lives in a fantasy world where he thinks the economic situation of business doesn't change based on costs. "Oh, they can handle the tax increase! They'll just cut costs elsewhere" or some shit.
Wow, another pointless tax increase. I never drink any alcoholic beverages myself but I certianly don't see the need to increase a tax on beer.
Binge drinking was really the best reason this guy could come up with? Come on, how many college students binge drink percentage-wise or population-wise for that matter? It's got to be a pretty small minority.
yeah thats ridiculous. i mean like he said 1500% is ridiculous. maybe like 15% or something like that but, yeah you cant raise the taxes on anything else 1500% without having some sort of coup on your hands.
