It appears that most of you could care less BUT the ones of you who do care are VERY vocal about it. That was my concern when I posted this. So bars are simply going to have to raise prices across the board or lose money on this deal.
Well yeah, your prices go up the customers' prices go up, wether it be from price increases from suppliers or taxes. There is no way around that.

I will even supply the line to use with customers when they bitch about it. You simply tell them it is a tax, they HAVE to pay it. Now, they can either pay the full percentage on all of their purchases, or the price of drinks can go up slightly so the burden is shared by everyone and you end up paying a little less than the full percentage.
