Well, you have to realize the Seattle city council recently approved a tax on sugary drinks.Jusme wrote:What they didn't even mention, was the fact that with sales of firearms and ammo, decreasing in Seattle, they are losing the normal revenue from sales taxes.

Oh, and "Some council members favored including diet soda, which is more popular with wealthier white consumers. That was one recommendation made after the city put the plan through a racial-equity analysis."
