A lot of stuff the government has a say in starts on April 1st. Funny how that works.

I think the government fiscal year ends on March 31st. Perhaps that's why......... besides, the government is a joke.

The hike isn't too bad really. If you can't afford the price jump, just buy wine by the box or something.
