The "soda" tax will be wrapped up in a bottle/can deposit charge like they have in Michigan
However you can only return the bottle/can to the place you bought it because the machines are set up if they do not carry that item they can not refund the container (even know all the containers just go to one central location) also if you crush your cans to save space or the label comes off your bottle it will not be able to read the bar code and no refund is issued and the gov't keeps the tax
I urge people to look into third parties because the top two are getting closer and closer is reality (no matter what they say to hide it) Through out time there has always been more then one choice it was not until we were flooded with mass media that it was determined that only two parties need reconized and of those parties only certian canadates need covered.
