DC to extend 70% wholesale tax on e-cigarettes

[kakiser56]

DC budget would extend 70 percent tobacco tax to vapor products, e-cigarettes

Unreasonable regulation that deserves a reasonable underground market in response

Just another attempt to squeeze the little guy. You never hear about raising taxes on big business. Big business is were the real money is.
What were DC residence' thinking on electing DC Mayor Muriel Bowser? A representative for the people?

And a 70% tax on the wholesale end - equates to a 100% increase on the retail end.

The only actual vaping device is an atomizer. I think Indiana is talking about 74%. I'm not paying that for a battery.
It's time for the Chinese to start manufacturing VV/VW Flashlights, and bulbs with a 510 connector. Or a variety of device heads.... toothbrushes, nose trimmers, sweater shavers, engravers, personal cooling fans, laser pointers, charging adaptors, .........

Who do you thinks pays when you increase corporate taxes? I own a small company and taxes are just another line item in the budget that is added to what we charge our customers so we can remain in business.
