Soda tax? To fund a government malpractice pool?

You need to stop sniffing glue.

LOL, I stopped reading when I got to soda tax.

No quicker way to de-legitimize oneself

“You need to stop sniffing glue.”

The soda tax is a tax that the jurors most likely to award massive uneconomic damages awards would pay.

The tax is designed to make the lower-income jurors who haven’t earned much money in their lives think hard and carefully before handing out other peoples’ money.

“soda tax”

It would be hard to collect in areas like Metro NYC/DC/KC/Philly because other states are nearby and soda can be stored for a long time.

Perhaps a different tax.

Cable tax increase?
