“I firmly believe that, like my father told me, the state government and the United States are not going to be happy until they eliminate us as a people. And this is the process of what they’re trying to do,” Seneca said.
“They want to terminate us and assimilate us into the white society,” Seneca continued. “That’s their goal, ultimate goal. And we’re going to fight every inch of the way to stop them and to keep our culture and our traditions and our nation alive and well.”
It’s not just about the state attempting to collect taxes on cigarettes from non-Indians. Seneca frustration stems from generations of broken treaties, leased-land disputes and claims of eminent domain by the state, said Robert Odawi Porter, a Seneca Nation lawyer who is running for president of the nation.
“Really it goes back to the very beginning,” Porter said. “The state and its officials have engaged in nothing but predatory conduct. It’s just been one continued episode of theft and efforts to terminate us.”
In an advertisement in today’s Buffalo News, a Seneca business group blasts Gov. David A. Paterson and New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg for their support for collecting the tax.
In 2005, WFI Acquisition, including the Nanula family and a New York City-based private equity firm, bought Wilson Farms from Dutch supermarket giant Ahold,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which had operated the chain as a division of Tops Markets.
The chain now consists of 188 stores, including some branded as Sugar Creek and Wilson Farms Express. Convenience Store News ranked Wilson Farms tied for 44th among chains in the country,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], based on its number of stores.
More than $23 million of investment has been poured into its stores since the acquisition, benefiting local contractors and building materials suppliers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Nanula said. Wilson Farms generates $400 million to $500 million a year in sales, including sales of gasoline. Cigarettes account for about 25 percent of its typical store’s sales.
While the chain has budgeted for a drop in cigarette sales of about 5 percent to 7 percent on a year-over-year basis since the acquisition, this year’s tax hike produced a much bigger hit,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Nanula said. “We obviously never intended to lose 30 to 40 percent of our cigarette sales.”
The sharp drop in cigarette sales has created a hole that is difficult to fill,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he said. The chain is responding by cutting 20 percent of its administrative staff, reducing labor hours for store employees, and lowering its projected 2011 capital spending by $4.5 million. It has also told media outlets it is reducing its advertising budget by $500,000.
“It is a major trickle-down effect to everybody we do business with,” Nanula said.
