1. Deutscher Tabakgegnerverein zum Schutze der Nichtraucher: A $1 per pack tax increase on cigarettes.
2. Protestant Ethic: Oregon-style tax increase on people that make too much money.
3. The Gordon Gekko: Oregon-style tax increase on corporations that make too much money.
4. Temperance: Additional 5 cent tax on a can of beer and an additional 10 cent tax on a bottle of wine or liquor.
