tax the smokers, tax the drinkers, tax the tanners, what next.

The fat people.

I smoke, I drink, I tan and I am fat. I'm screwed.

higher alcohol tax, buy gallon bottles and drink at home and stop paying by the drink at bars.
higher cigarette tax, buy cheaper brand.
tanning tax, (not sure what to say)
fat tax, diet and try to lose weight to save money. will definitely need to save money to pay my tanning tax!!!!

Not if they ban it all together in March.

then their tanning tax would definitely tank!!!

just reading that article makes me think they wouldn't ban it all together, because now they have a better idea to tax the **** out of it just like alcohol and cigarettes. I mean, they DO have proof that smoking and alcohol kills people, yet they don't ban it because they profit from it greatly by taxing it.

It is a full cosmedic tax also. My friend is lobbying on the hill against it.

I sure hope nobody is surprised by it. Those in charge now won't stop unless they run out of taxpayers.

Wouldn't them wanting to tax us by thought of as them not wanting to wipe us out, then they wouldn't make anything on us.
