I tried Diet tonic water.  Hideous loathsome and odious stuff that tastes bad.

Gwinett county is voting on a new 1 cent sales tax to join MARTA.  

https://atlanta.curbed.com/2019/3/12/18261733/gwinnett-county-marta-vote-could-be-historic

This new sales tax would not end until 2057, resulting in billions of dollars. According to theAtlanta Journal-Constitution, all monies raised would be “for the benefit of Gwinnett.”
While the plan does call for heavy rail, extending the line from the current Doraville MARTA station to a new transit hub to be built near the intersection of Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Interstate 85, it also calls for much more robust bus service.

Heavily tax lottery tickets.  Let's get every last penny from the poor.

Much rather see lottery go away, along with river boats and randomly placed casinos and off-track facilities.

a couple months ago when gas prices here dropped below $2/gallon I looked at the difference in the price of gas in 1980 and the difference in the gas tax since 1980

with state of Iowa and Fed taxes combined, the tax on a gallon of gas went up about the same as the cost of the gallon of gas

could be tax has gone up more in Ohio

I still say we need to wreck MH's new house with a board meeting in Indy next year. He'll surely supply at least 10 hide-a-beds for all of us, and couches for others. Dood has a Big Green Egg, for chripePeete.
