Joe Six-pack will have to pay a lot more to get his buzz on if Assemblyman Jim Beall has his way.
The San Jose Democrat on Thursday proposed raising the beer tax by $1.80 per six-pack, or 30 cents per can or bottle. The current tax is 2 cents per can. That's an increase of about 1,500 percent.
Once again, proof positive that democrats couldn't care less about the little guy. Keep your hands off my damn beer.

Wonder how that will fly at the union halls.
i would highly doubt this absurdity would ever see the light of day as law
Isn't this a tax that would disproportionally affect the poor?
Wouldn't this non thinking liberal weenie be better served by proposing a tax on brie and chardonnay?
But see... he'd be paying the tax and I'm sure he would want that.
