How long before this is rescinded? Are they taxing the dry powder packets, too, that high school and college teams use to mix coolers full of the drink?

Of course.
They may be fricking stupid but not that fricking stupid.
Starbucks would move its HQ out of the Seattle area in a second if taxes made it $15 for a latte.
