Any chance you could write us at tijuana [at ] crossbordercomunica [dot] com so we can provide you with more info and maybe get you some passes to the event (it's only $5, but we can probably get you a few passes if you're interested in attending)?

How about imposing taxes after a specific barrel? This will really only hurt the small guys. I was thinking along the same lines for only taxing the conglomerates.

Why would I care about taxing cigarette smoker anyway? Smoking is a disgusting habit. Beer is good! Would it be unfair towards the big beer conglomerates if the state only raised taxes on their alcohol (Budweiser, Coors, and other mainstream big beer conglomerates)? That way only those with no taste buds get punished and those of us that drink the $8+ six packs still get to purchase quality beer without the additional taxes.
