  According to what I heard on Channel 4 news tonight; alcohol is going to be taxed heavily starting next week.  I'm guessing, it's gonna be a snowball effect!  Starts in Illinois, works it's way to other states!  The argument continues to be the same they used for smokers.  "The people that imbibe in "said habit", should have to pay for the future illnesses "said habit",  people choose to do. 

  OK - A lot of people subscribe to that way of thinking.  The smokers & the drinkers should pay for the habits they choose; "after all", the choices they are making costs us taxpayers TONS of money BECAUSE OF the choices they make!  "After all, I make "healthy choices", in my family:  why should I pay for a person or a family that makes bad choices"?  Are you feeling Smug & Righteous? 

   FYI...  Another bill that is being talked about & almost ready to pass is this!  A TAX on "junk food"; because "said food "contributes to the obesity of our nation & of our children".  YEP!  Wanna buy chips, chocolate, marshmallows, popcorn, etc?   

  Yeah...you're gonna have to pay a penalty!  YOU are choosing, by buying "government decided, "unhealthy foods", for your family!  You are choosing to make yourself & your family fat & therefore needing medical intervention for your choices!  You will be forced to pay taxes ahead of time to pay for the medical intervention that will be needed because of the choices you made. 

  DO YOU STILL FEEL RIGHTEOUS?  What was that quote? "When they came for them?...I didn't do anything; when they came for me; there was no one left".

Obama, the great take away president. He'll take away our food, our drink like he's taking our money.

I can see it now. Secret breweries and stills. Illegal dealers lurking in the shadows, selling everything from drugs and guns to booze and chocolate donuts. Doors being kicked in by armed, uniformed men in masks searching for illegal pastries. Not a pretty world.
