Quote – Wayne Dyer, executive director of the Arkansas Hospitality Association. Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

People on the other side of the issue, I understand where they're coming from. They want their product funded. But my industry is paying the tax to some degree. That's the bottom line. Admittedly, some of the tax is passed on, but my restaurant and food service operators are paying some of this tax out of their own pocket.

Wayne Dyer, executive director of the Arkansas Hospitality Association. Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, 1997, “Soda tax looks solid this term Repeal push bubbling but making no splash”.
