Huh... I just picked up a bus in CT recently and I didn't get hit with a tax as far as I could detect. I wonder how it gets paid.
The effects won't be immediate, but you can expect to see higher prices later on.
To give you a rough idea:
You see it, a truck brought it.
Higher truck taxes mean that carriers will charge more to their customers to haul their products, to cover the increased tax on their vehicles.
Those companies, in turn, will raise the prices of their products, to cover the higher costs of shipping.
This includes groceries, medical equipment, building supplies, tools, electronics, etc, etc, etc.
As TomO said:
As if the people of Connecticut won't be the ones who actually end up paying for it.
