WASHINGTON (AP) — Consumers in the United States may have to hand over nearly $2 more for a case of **** to help provide health insurance for all.
Details of the proposed **** tax are described in a Senate Finance Committee document that will be used to brief lawmakers Wednesday at a closed-door meeting.

Taxes on wine and hard ****** would also go up. And there might be a new tax on soda and other sugary drinks blamed for contributing to obesity. No taxes on diet drinks, however.

**** taxes would go up by 48 cents a six-pack, wine taxes would rise by 49 cents per bottle, and the tax on hard ****** would increase by 40 cents per fifth. Proceeds from the new taxes would help cover an estimated 50 million uninsured Americans.

**** tax? What **** tax? Hell no. Stay away from my **** big government. Lets get the revolution started, we can have a Boston **** Party. :ak47: :D
 
If all it takes to fund Universal Healthcare for Americans is a fookin' **** tax, of course we should do this immediately.

I think the funding issue requires much more than a simple **** tax. ****, Cigs, and Gas :thumbsup:
 
Let's say it is a small **** tax, say 10 cents per litre or something like that.

Here's the numbers:

Usa

Inhabitants - 308.241.000
**** consumptions per head per year - 85.5 l

Total **** litres per year - 26.354.605.500

**** tax estimated 10 cents per litre

26.354.605,50 Dollars per year.

Come on that is a nice little deal nad it owuld help quite a bit.

And I guess you could actiuall pay a bit more, like 20 cents per litre or 5 cents per pint or such, Do yer own maths :glugglug:

Saving the econmy never was so much fun :hatsoff:

it is actually $2,635,460,550 per year. $2billion a year is significant
 
oh nice so you could budget the Healthcare bill right with the spring break lol
 
2 billion a year is a nice start...but we are a nation of fatties and with such a dangerous food supply due to nonexistent or unenforced food regulations...we'll need more than $2bill I'm afraid... :o

I don't particularly care one way or another about this "sin tax." **** is already freaking outrageous. I remember back around the turn of the century the same 40s I get today for $2.50 were a buck back then. That's a one and a half increase in ten years. Sickening. The bottom line is people are just going to buy less and drink less ****.

:yesyes:

Don't give Sam more of your money :thefinger (or just sober your ******* asses up).
 
While I don't care if a bottle of JD goes up 40 cents, no, I don 't support it. This fucking government, on both sides of the aisle, continues to increase spending and increase taxing while cutting nothing.

I also don't believe in trying to tax different behaviors out of existence. But if we continue to let our representatives literally charge us for their attempt at social engineering, then we get what we get.

Will probably just be more bootleggers in the long run. I've always been tempted to get one of those kits. You can only produce so much before you are commiting a crime though.
 
I don't think this tax will slow anyone from drinking as much as they do now. The prices of cigarettes keep climbing and people keep smoking. A habit is an habit. At least the plan is to improve healthcare. To those who may need it because of that habit
