I was shocked, stunned even, when I read that NJ Democrats want to institute a tax on public water. I thought Democrats abhorred taxes--just kidding.
They want a four cent tax on every 1000 gallons used. Senator Robert Smith of Piscataway is quoted as saying, "It's a very tiny tax."

Even water doesn't run fast enough.
Next, they'll want to tax the air we breathe.
They already wanted to tax the air you exhale.
Feel lucky. Remember they want to experiment with and study 'air' released by cows. That could have been you!
