PHILLY SODA TAX WILL BE A TOTAL FAILURE

Another liberal scam to bilk people out of money to fund corrupt politicians and their union cronies will be a complete and utter failure. Liberals don’t understand economics, unintended consequences, or the intelligence of business people and citizens. Mayor Kenney and his moronic minions think they can multiply 1.5 cents times the amount of soda currently consumed to raise $91 million per year “for the children”. They are too stupid to realize people and businesses will always adjust their behavior to reduce their pain.

The article below addresses only the tip of the iceberg. Smart businessmen who understand economics and tax law better than liberal Democrat idiots like Kenney, will find a way to not pay the tax. The gentleman interviewed in the article says companies will us transshipping to not pay the tax. They already avoid a bottle tax in NY. So, the big grocery stores, Wal-Marts, Targets and wholesale clubs will use this method to not pay the tax. Only the small mom and pop stores in the poor neighborhoods will end up paying. So only the poor folks will see the 50% to 60% increase in costs.

Anyone who lives within 5 or so miles of the Philadelphia border will do their grocery shopping in Montgomery, Delaware, or Bucks County and avoid paying the higher prices. This will result in more Philadelphia based retailers going out of business and laying people off. Kenney is hiring 15 new government drones to enforce his soda tax. They are going to be sitting around with their thumbs up their asses wondering where the $91 million went. At $120,000 per drone, the taxpayers are getting screwed again.

Kenney will be lucky to generate $40 million from this illegal sales tax, if it doesn’t get overturned in court. The truth is that this money is going into the general fund. There is no special fund to make sure it gets spent on the kids. Nothing but politician lies. Kids won’t be healthier. Kids won’t be smarter. But politician hacks and their union cronies will be richer. Liberals are dumber than a sack of hammers but they are more dangerous than a Disney alligator for two year olds.

THE GREAT PHILLY “FART IN” TO PROTEST HILLARY’S FLATULENCE OF THE MOUTH

I’m so sad I’ll be in Colorado during the Philly Democratic National Convention freak show of FSA army members, Black Thugs Matters activists, feminist freaks, trannies, and assorted other nutjobs. But I’m really upset that I’ll miss the great Hillary Fart In. The Wells Fargo Center doesn’t smell great to begin with and Hillary’s supporters already have the wretched stench of liberalism wafting above them. Now add in thousands of baked bean filled Bernie supporters and you’ve got an explosive situation. Mayor Kenney has proposed a fart tax to take advantage of the situation. Here is a preview of Hillary’s DNC acceptance speech:

Via Truthdig

Philadelphia: Cheri Honkala, the leader of the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign, announced that her group was organizing the world’s largest “fart-in” to be held on July 28 at the Wells Fargo Center during Hillary Clinton’s anticipated acceptance speech for the Democratic nomination.

“We will be holding a massive bean supper for Bernie Sanders delegates on American Street in my Kensington neighborhood on the afternoon of July 28,” she said. “We are setting up a Clintonville there, modeled on the Hoovervilles of the 1930s where the poor and unemployed built shanty towns. The Sanders delegates, their bellies full of beans, will be able to return to the Wells Fargo Center and greet the rhetorical flatulence of Hillary Clinton with the real thing.”
