101 AnonymousI live in cleaveland park and think this tax is the wrong way to go if we are trying to encourage reusing bags.
102 AnonymousWARD 6 - Tommy Wells This ridiculous tax will just encourage so many of us to shop OUTSIDE of the district in nearby Virginia or Maryland - this is definitely one of the more ridiculous measures the DC Council has supported and I plan to actively campaign against my Ward Councilman during the next election season, first for any Democrat that will run against him in the primary to get him the hell out, then for the opposing Republican if a good candidate actually runs.

107 Louise FilkinsStop taking more of my money to pay for your "programs." Clean up your act before cleaning up the river. NO to Socialism!
108 AnonymousPeople who actually clean up the District should NOT be taxed for doing their part. Try encouraging reusable bags, but not this way!
109 AnonymousI do not see this as a "pet" tax and have no pet. But I think it is the wrong way to go. Also, keeping track of taxes and submitting is another burden on businesses. If anything, we should just pay the business for bags--like the old glass-bottle-deposit system. It worked.

113 Richard McCartyThis is a silly tax. As a resident of Northern Virginia, I have no intention of paying it. And I suspect that there are many others like me.

116 JohnWe pay enough in taxes already, especially considering we have no Federal representation.
