Is there no tax on soda in the states? Is that what the 4th of July celebrates? by Jerry Whorebach 07/03/2012, 4:41am PDT
Where I live, Canada, you can sometimes find two-litre bottles of store-brand soda for as little as seventy-five cents each. But that's slightly deceptive, because by the time you add the six-cent non-refundable recycling fee and twelve percent sales tax, you're back to looking at ninety-one cents per bottle. It would be enough to make me furious if all my money didn't come directly from the government in the first place. The least they could do is mandate that stores print the final, after-tax price right on the tags, like they do with VAT in the UK.

    If you're even doing these calculations, you should probably drink less soda. NT by Mischief Maker 07/03/2012, 8:14am PDT NEW
