Should meat be taxed like alcohol and cigarettes?

At this time of year, the last thing anyone wants to think about is paying more taxes. But there's one tax I'm in favor of - and you should be, too, if you care about your health and the health of the planet: a sin tax on meat, cheese and other animal-based foods.

Heather, stop talking and send ma a pic of yourself and a phone number. We can make hot monkey love, and I won’t even buy you a burger.

Should we throw tea in the harbor or politicians?

Vegetable taxes are better. And Hollywood should be paying excise taxes like every other business.

F#%& these assclowns.

[terycarl]

the very moment that government instituted a tax on anything to regulate its use...they overstepped their authority PERIOD.

Taxes are to raise revenue, not control others behavior.

How about a tax on liberal stupidity. Debt free in no time!

[hattend]

It’s only a matter of time. We The People have allowed the progressives to tax the air we breathe, why not the food we eat?

[Taxman]

I propose a SIN TAX on LIEberals!

If evolution is correct, soon all the vegans will begin to have eyes on the sides of the head as all the prey species do (deer, cows, rabbits, squirrels) so they can see the MEAT EATING predators, who have their eyes looking forward, saying in wait to ambush them.

By the way, are YOUR eyes looking forward, like a MEAT EATER, or on the side of the head like a vegan animal(prey).

Yes, Wagyu beef can be found in Idaho and Washington state. Agri-Beef has an extensive program and markets their Wagyu as Snake River Beef.

Good stuff!!!

Grass fed beef and lamb are very tasty and provide the real protein we need not some soy bs posing as meat.

[poobear]
