Like most things democrat.
Please try noting the location or at least the state where this is happening.
Otherwise, it’s just a useless post.

He seriously said this?
In public?
I guess it never occurred to them that people on fixed incomes may buy a smaller salad mix because they only have a household of two. Or one.
Though, I'll bet, it probably did and they just don't care.
The NE gulag states wonder why there is an exodus out of that poisoned part of the nation.
Just keep taxing em’ and you might get that 100% of green space you all wish for.
“Republicans say it was sold to the public as a simple one percent tax hike on restaurant meals.”
“That’s alright honey. We’ll stop going out as much. We’ll just stop by Wegman’s and hit the prepared food kiosks. It’ll be great!”

“Won’t get fooled again...”
Uh, yes you will.
Idiot governor. Grocery store food items are supposed to cost less (which means no tax) because they are not a luxury-non necessity which let’s face it meals prepared, served, cleaned up after by others are. Restaurant meals are taxed because they are no longer a commodity. I can’t say for sure but I imagine restaurants are tax exempt on their produce, meat, staples, and beverage and such purchased from their suppliers.
States should be making more goods sales tax exempt not increasing those subject to it.
This is for the new state of Greenland.
I think Connecticut has learned all the wrong lessons from its next door neighbor, Massachusetts (AKA “Taxachusetts). ;-)
But that’s politicians — especially Democrat politicians — for you. They have absolutely no ability to do anything but tax, and then spend. And where’s the fun in being a politician if you actually have to, like, stick to a budget and make hard policy choices and such?
If "fairness" was the goal, they would eliminate the restaurant tax.
Progressives' idea of "fairness":
John is unfairly taxed, so we'll tax Bill unfairly also, then it will all be "fair".
Pretty soon, Connecticut is going to notice that people can get air tax free by breathing...
“Governor Lamont admits, he needed the money to balance his budget but sees this as a fairness issue adding, “I think our restaurants have been at a real disadvantage because people could go to grocery stores and buy the same thing you can get at a restaurant tax free at the grocery store.”
???
“I think our restaurants have been at a real disadvantage because people could go to grocery stores and buy the same thing you can get at a restaurant tax free at the grocery store.”
LOL. So cut the restaurant tax ass hat.
Are supermarkets ready to process this tax?
Super post but if “we” have to spend time searching where it’s from, it’s not at all helpful, and I’ve been guilty a time or two over the years!
Good old Connecticut. If they’re not banning guns, they’re taxing Grandma’s meager food budget.
Just requested the mods add the state, CT, to the headline. Post is kinda worthless without the location.
I’d like to know what my fellow High School buddy, Lenny, is going to do about it.
Yeah, we were in the same graduating class. Lenny always had to be class president. Probably because no one else waned the job.
Deadhead Ned is working on saving the environment by striving senior citizens on a fixed income.
