This is getting waaayyyyyy out of hand.
The U.S. Senate is considering a proposal that would dramatically raise what they call “lifestyle taxes” to pay for a huge federal health care program. Under this proposal you would be paying more for some of the simple things you enjoy, such as a soft drink and your favorite alcohol beverages. The proposal calls for a staggering increase in federal taxes on alcohol beverages of up to 229 percent!
Bad enough that old folks will have to hit the ice-floe.
Now the bastards will make it too expensive to knock back a couple ounces of Jack Daniels to go with that ice?
IIRC, the Second American Revolution was fought over whiskey taxes. No reason to abandon that tradition, is there?

Kaboom!
