TAN TAX

Yes the news in los angeles gives us all the important information. There is a new Federal Tanning Tax. It is a 10% tax when you fake-n-bake in a tanning bed. The people are outraged.

It is to raise something like $2.7 billion for health care reform. I may be biased because I have never used a tanning bed, but it makes perfect sense to me. If someone is going to put themselves purposely at higher risk of skin cancer by frying themselves in a human panini machine, and then tax money in the health care system which we are trying to universalize, will be used for them, then pay for it!
