Key paragraph from story:

“Whole Foods could face the dual challenge of higher taxes on its core customers (highend households) and possible unionization efforts. While certainly not all Whole Foods’ customers have incomes above $200,000 for singles and $250,000 for couples, the concentration of these income groups in Whole Foods’ market strongholds of the Northeast and California, suggests that there could be some incremental pressure on sales in 2009.”

$200,000 for singles and $250,000 for couples

So a couple living together making $400k won't see a tax increase but they will get hammered hard if they get married? That's a huge marriage penalty. Why do Democrats have it out for married people? Gays want to get married out of envy rather than any financial sense.
