Taxing Grub...for the love of a City!
What up B!
Fast food tax? It was only a matter of time. Urban area's are under assault from multiple sources, especially from Federal and State government funding levels. Mayor's, School Superintendents et. al. in urban area's are left to devise "creative" sources of funding to keep some semblence of neighborhood and community. This is one of the reasons why you see many folks fighting to keep the Community Block Grant Funding that W and crew wants to eliminate.
You will see tax abatement, property and sales taxes and other mechanism's are utilized in cities where there is loss in population (i.e. check any urban area in the rustbelt). Some fare better than others. Some city's spin their wheels... or remain urban latreens It is a balancing act that that is becoming more difficult... should be settled at the ballot box... However, term limits and lobbiest have managed to alter the balance of power.
I think Bro. Kwame' is banking on folks droppin' a few extra dabloons for Extra Everything w/ Fries!
African Pit Bull is OUT!
P. S....don't ask about the secret sauce
