I am not surprised they are going after alcohol. It was only a matter of time. They have done it to tobacco to the point you pay more tax than you pay for product. But damn going after soda come on give me a break you greedy SOB's.

Alcohol has been subject to federal taxation since 1784, that's what the whole "Whiskey Rebellion" was about in western (then) Virginia, Then the "revenuers" busting up stills, ATF etc.
It's still BS though because those asshats can't manage the money they get now.

Think "ATF"

Alcohol -  They working on it now.

Tobacco - Done deal.

Firearms - Next??

You have it backwards, the reason they have ATF is because they ALREADY, (like for the last 40 years ) regulate the hell out of all 3.
But like MB said, it would make a hell of a convenience store  ;D

Kurt Vonnegaught came and spoke at UT right after Waco. He said " ATF, I had two beers before this address, a half pack of cigs in my pocket, and a gun in my car. These people scare the hell out of me". Lets legalize the other stuff and save money on prison cells, the DEA, and get the rvenue.

True Texan must not have found this thread yet.

 His outrage will be great and he could single handedly pay for all BHo's plans with the taxes he'll be paying. ;)

This may well be the "12-pack" that breaks the back of this country.

A self serving sin tax of that "gouging" a level on BEER?

That's like saying a derogatory remark about Dale Earnhardt Sr. The boys in Iredell County, NC amongst others will flat out riot.

This type of blasphemy/treason will not be tolerated if Joe "six-pack" has to make $50,000 a year to maintain his beer provisions.

Raise the price on Skoal and Budweiser?

Gonna be trouble,...... ::)

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
