[quote]to this cancer survivor, your partisan obfuscation on this issue is tiresome[/quote] Right.

[quote]Abbott messed up in conflating two issues.

Alabama Legislators vote to raise taxes

Posted by lsusa on 5/4/24 at 4:07 pm

Hopefully Auntie Kay-Kay ain’t going to sign this. The bill essentially argues that by raising taxes on consumers it’s going to help “other businesses compete”. Liquor at ABC stores will still be cheaper. The only reasons people go to non-ABC stores is because of location, convenience and ho...
