North Carolina bill changes whisky pricing and local profits
North Carolina lawmakers passed a whiskey pricing bill shifting tax into the unit price set by the ABC Board. The change ends tax-on-tax, reducing state liquor revenue by over 2 million while allowing local governments to keep about 1.2 percent of sales. In Guilford County the windfall nears 790 thousand with Greensboro earning about 70 thousand more yearly, Jamestown 24 thousand, and Guilford County plus High Point around 3 thousand each. The measure, debated in committees after Senate approval, split Guilford representatives Joe Osteen and Donald Badgley for the bill against Philip Lacy and Hardy Carroll.
