Even if they didn't tax food, they would get it 'somehow'. You elect crooks to office, you can't be surprised when they start fleecing the sheep. Some are just born without the capacity for ethics; hand in the cookie jar from day 1......

Food shouldn't be taxed at all.

25 cents saved on $100.00 worth of groceries? At that rate I can buy a loaf of bread every 3 months. Don't get me wrong, every 25 cents helps and I will accept the tax cut. Is this an election year ploy to show us how well politicians are managing our money? I wonder, how much did it cost us to have this bill ran through the TN legislature and how much will it cost businesses to adjust their computors???
