Vote With Your Wallet

  • Effective New Year's Day, it will cost another 5 cents to buy bottled water within the Chicago city limits, thanks to a tax that is the first of its kind in the country.

    But several organizations are out to invalidate the new tax, which was approved in November as part of Mayor Richard M. Daley's $275 million city budget.

    The Illinois Beverage Association is among the groups that plans to file a lawsuit to invalidate the tax. The organization argues that the tax will "disproportionately hurt low- and fixed-income families, who spend a greater percentage of their income on food and drinks. This includes senior citizens."
In this case, the organizations and associations are just making lawyers richer. Municipalities can attempt to levy taxes on anything they want.

But voters can purchase things anywhere they want. We, as a matter of habit, do all of our shopping in the suburbs; gas, food, clothing, etc. Everything we can, we purchase outside city limits. We make sure the Daley machine has to stretch for any penny they get out of us.

If enough people stop buying bottled water in the city, the tax may eventually be repealed.

here is what I do...I went to the store, spent 3.75 on a....water bottle. I fill it up, just like they do at the plant. I drink it. If i run out, I refill it. When it gets nasty, i wash it. I never understood why people throw away a buck at a time, not to mention the waste that goes into the ground. Im really not a liberal or a hippie, but doesn't this make sense? Oh wait, I forgot. Duh. We aren't suppossed to do what makes sense...its in the go's somewhere...

Its kind of funny when you think about it. People should be encouraged to drink water rather then sugary drinks. It is a healthier alternative and if more did, the small health benefit would probably save more money in health care costs overall then the tax would generate. Why was there no tax increase on the kool-aid "baby bottle" style drinks that seem to be getting more popular. I guess I will just start buying my water in bulk in the burbs.

I think I have my retirement job lined up. I will open a chain of convenience stores in all the suburbs on the border streets. Do you recall that, "Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms" should be the name of a convenience store? That's what we will have and the name of the stores will be,
NO CHICAGO TAXES!!

Along with gasoline and bottled water it will have all the things that Daley wants to tax or eliminate, along with bottles water we will sell jugs of trans-fat oil, platters of foi gras and bullets of all calibers.

At the entrance of each store, there will be a life size, 4 foot 11 inch cigar store Indian type bobble head statue of Richie. As each customer comes in they can bounce the bobble head and hear such phrases as, "Don't shop here, I want your money!!"

I agree with 12/28/2007 11:18:00P.M.
Bottled water is nothing but a big scam. Buy yourself a bottle fill it with tap water and drink it. People who complain about paying $3.00 for a gallon of gas have no problem with paying much more a gallon for bottled water. Most of the brands you drink are double filtered straight out of Lake Michigan. It is no more healthful than tap water, and much more expensive.

Oh yea and one more thing, if Daley and his merry band of theives were serious about reducing the cities budgetary gap, he'd make it his business to put a stop to those landlords who abuse the Homstead Real Estate Tax exemption by claiming it on one or more rental properties that are not where the landlord lives.

The amount of tax revenue lost by these tax cheaters sticking it to the rest who pay there fair share of taxes is huge.

If it takes building inspectors, water or parking meter readers, street sweepers or building management or condo association affidavids to re-affirm residents of properties designated as tax exempt by Homstead Exemption are actually the princpal residence of the registered owner, do it!

Make it a huge penalty to the landlord like forfiture of the property if a tennent makes a claim that they have been the resident of such a residence.

That alone would police such abuse. The city and tennnt would share in the proceeds of the tax sale of property.

Stopping such abuse that results in such a huge loss of tax reciepts is doable.

My tin-foil cap tells me it doesn't get addressesd because the merry band of thieves that manage this city and county dont want to close the barn door on this rip-off of the rest of us becuse in keeping the status quo there is something in it for them like $$$ to ignore the abuse.

I may be wrong but it seems that a large number of po's live closer to the bordering city limits near suburban municipalities rather than towards the city central areas.

Is this correct?

If so, take advantage of the locations by re fueling, cigarette purchasing, water, booze, etc. in bordering the city and / or cook county. It's fically advantageous.

Po's assigned to some districts , such as 4th, have a special advantage to be able to go beyond state taxing boundaries.

It's all a matter of money $$$

Every pol in the country knows it.
Every penny a citizen can save from going into the tax coffers of city hall is important.

Maybe the residency requirement in the city is positioned there in order to re-tax the city employees as consumers.

Tax their pay and tax their consumptions.

"Pullmanesque"

Why don't they just pay the city employees with script spendable only in the city limits?

"Dickie Bucks" they could be called and they evaporate if saved or not spent by the end of every month.

The idea is an inter city "euro"
and taxes in printing as well as administering could be applied and hiked to stay on top of the cost of living percentages each year.

Bottled water is one of the highest profit margin items there is. Several firms have come out publicly and admitted they use Chicago tap water. Say what you will about the mopes that run the city but Chicago Tap water has been proven to be some of the purest in the world.
Chicago recently raised the rates for the suburban pipeline they sell water to and the rates in the suburbs went up also.

Put that same .10 deposit on every bottle or can, whether it's glass, plastic or aluminum and watch all this waste disappear from our roadsides and streets. If he was concerned about the waste and landfills, he would look into a deposit system, but if there's no money in it for him, he doesn't give a shit...

Actually, the midget mayor could have had it both ways, as in, deposits on plastic containers, with all unredeemed deposits defaulting to the city's coffers.

Shit, requiring even 1 cent deposits on all individual glass containers, metal cans, recyclable plastic containers, etc., with the retailer being required to receipt the total deposit amount collected, and all unredeemed monies payable to the city, on, say, a quarterly basis, would both raise plenty of revenue and provide an economic incentive to those whose neighborhoods are consistently strewn with trashy debris.

Plus, think of the new vistas which would be opened for the city's many scavenging entrepreneurs.

I actually like Chicago tap water, but Richie thinks we are not paying enough for it. The meter costs how much----$400-1000 and has to be put in by a union plumber, one of the few unions that endorse the mayor because they have a "prevailing wage" contract with the city.

They say your water bills could go down when metered versus flat rate. If you think you water bills will go down, I'll sell you the top 10 feet of Lake Michigan.
