Why not?
In an article in today's San Antonio Express-News it says-
"The bill would create an additional "snack tax" of 3 percent that would apply to items including cookies, candy, chips and soft drinks.
The snack tax wouldn't apply to food or beverages consumed on the premises of establishments such as restaurants, said Rep. John Smithee, R-Amarillo.
He speculated about the discrepancy of charging a tax on a soft drink at the to-go window of a fast-food restaurant, for example, but not on the same item when it's bought at the counter.
"I guess you can drive up to the window and say, 'I'm just going to sit here until I finish my Coke,'" Smithee said."
Well....... THAT'S THE TICKET! I swear that I will pull into EVERY Drive-thru, get my Big Red, turn off the engine and just sit there and drink it on THEIR premises.
Then I'll start buying my smokes from BLUE states then wait until 2006 to Vote their sorry
BUTTS OUT!!
