Kudos to WCNC for pointing out in layman’s terms the cost of Uptown delusions — Ten cents on every dollar you spend when you eat out.

Eating out makes you wealthy, according to Jennifer Roberts, so it is okay to tax your pants off to help pay for Uptown “attractions,” a bloated and corrupt county DSS operation, and a chronically cash-strapped CMS, land of the six-figure administrator without any teaching responsibility.

When all of the various taxes on prepared meals kick in tomorrow, Charlotte diners will pay a whopping 9.25 percent to government for the honor. Chew on that for awhile.
