likely they were far less likely to have been impacted by the tax? think about it. if a governmental agencies asked you about a new tax and it impacted you deeply, you'd make darn sure you got your opinions out there. so someone would hear you. and if that tax barely impacted you at all, wouldn't you be a little bit more likely to keep walking and blow it off? ♪ >> reporter: we've heard since the tack took effect back in january that stores along philadelphia's border with the pa suburbs would take the biggest beating. it made sense. folks in those neighborhoods had the easiest time crossing the line to get the cheaper soda. but the bucco vets report shows those border sip codes had among the fewest impacted businesses. see there the light colors around the edges. only one of the three sip codes with the most impacted businesses bordered the burbs at all and barely by the way butkovitz notes those three sip codes with the most businesses impacted, well, they're among the poorest in the city, but wait a minute. we were told back in january that poor folks drink more soda

than anyone else. the implication was that poor folks were practically addicted to sweetened beverages and thus this tax would hit them the hardest. what do you know? seems like they figure out they can drink something else as butkovitz admitted when i pressed him on the issue. >> i would concur that there's probably been a significant drop off in consumption in those areas. >> reporter: look, i'd rather pay less than more for soda and just about everything else just like you, and you could argue the kenny administration was less than clear and candid about exactly where the soda tax revenues would go. but if you're going to claim the economic sky is falling with each new levee, you better back it up with numbers that don't fall flat. only in philly. ♪ all right. scott, we all know this i have two devices. how many phones do you havism pad and phone. >> two phones, a computer. >> we are overloaded and overwhelmed by technology in
