We need a wholesale purge of libtards to keep them from robbing us blind for their social experiments

It seems to me that if you want to pay for child welfare services with a tax, that tax should be levied on pampers and baby formula and food. Stuff that people who have babies buy.

If you want to fund anti-beer-belly and anti-beer-goggles services, THEN you tax beer.

I keep hoping my old home state will figure out why it's young people and jobs keep leaving. Every time I think they've finally hit rock bottom...I'm proved wrong.

How about a $25 six pack to make the tax inline with what smokers pay? /s

Tax them four dollars a bottle. I don’t drink beer.

I smoke. But a lot of Freepers don’t and don’t care what I’m taxed.

[dynachrome]

Go ahead and tax Strohs. That ain’t real beer anyhow!

In my old Michigan neighborhood (thick with welfare recipients) the welfare queens would send out their kids with food stamps to buy basic staples. They would then use the change to buy cigarettes and alcohol.

What amazed me was how their kids could get ice cream from every truck that passed by; my family worked and we rarely got treats from the ice cream trucks.

Clearly this reporter wants that tax, he couldn't have found anyone better resembling Bluto Blutarsky to interview.

Now, propose a tax on newsprint, or upping the cost to mail the silly things, and they go all First Amendment on you...

Having escaped from the failed social experiment that is Michigan several years ago, I’m tempted to remind everyone that the last person out of Michigan needs to turn out the lights. Somehow I don’t think the lights will be on that much longer anyway.

First they came for the smokers, and I didn’t do anything because I didn’t smoke. Next, they came for the beer drinkers, and I didn’t do anything because I didn’t drink beer. Then, they came for the fast food eaters, and the the SUV drivers, and....

I don't think there will be a huge uproar in Michigan unless malt liquor is included.
