Counting on Voter Ignorance

Elected officials in Seattle are pushing to enact a 20 cent-per-bag tax on plastic bags. The new tax is estimated to generate over $10 MILLION annually for the city.

One of the given uses for the money......education, infrastructure improvement, greater police or fire coverage maybe.........nope.

Much of the money will go towards paying for the administration and enforcement of the tax plan! These people keep getting elected...come on!
