This is too funny. The social engineers of Chicago are running afoul of regulations of the food stamp program upon which so many are depending. In their zeal to collect this soda tax, they are putting other money they depend on at risk.

“The Cook County rules allow for these stores to charge the soda tax so long as they offer SNAP customers a way to get an instant refund in the store.”

Both soda and beer are CO2 emitters and should be abolished altogether. They are killing the planet
