… Jaw Drop: NYT Writer Unsure 'If' Huge Philly Soda Tax Will Be Passed on to Consumers.

Can Margot Sanger-Katz and her editors possibly be so dumb as to imagine that soda manufacturers, distributors and retailers will just eat — or, in this case, drink — the entire soda tax themselves? Does she really think that industry margins are so high that its players can blithely absorb it as just another cost of doing business?

Of course, when it comes to dumb, the current mayor of Philadelphia is no slouch, either.
