Mayor Kenney harshly rebuked reports of coming layoffs late Tuesday night. "I didn't think it was possible for the soda industry to be any greedier," Kenney said in an emailed statement. “…They are so committed to stopping this tax from spreading to other cities, that they are not only passing the tax they should be paying onto their customer, they are actually willing to threaten working men and women's jobs rather than marginally reduce their seven figure bonuses."

THIS GUY IS A LUNATIC!...................

“that they are not only passing the tax they should be paying onto their customer”

How does a company eat a 51% tax on their products? Does he think the Cash Flow Fairy flies in bags of cash every night?

Drooling moron.

That's the way they all think: "There's plenty of money - those greedy white bastards are just trying to keep it all for themselves."

Because that's exactly what they would do, given the opportunity.
