Since you brought up Seattle, Washington. I think its crazy that there is a city tax on a substance that also receives a taxpayer-funded government subsidy. It like how much does the tax payer need to bleed itself to the government, all in the name of his\her health I'm sure.

Also I'm sure they will see less soda being bought inside the city, that is a win right? Except people are just shopping outside city limits. Kinda like dry counties were you just pick up your booze on the way home.
