    How is it a stretch ? You don't think big business is gonna raise prices to offset this tax?

    Why is it every time that I raise a point that I'm being unreasonable or have an axe to grind?


    When cost goes up for business (cost of goods or taxes) they must make up for the loss of revenue. It's Economics 101.



    PS - You're being dishonest about it just like the liberal politicians.

    What's the first rule when you're in debt? Stop digging that hole deeper.

    If I had a dollar for every time that a democrat has made this promise, I'd be a rich man.
