Will Obama or the congress impose a gay tax?

Well! They want money from everywhere else, constantly holding out their hands for that which they didn't lift a finger to earn. Consider the fat tax, sugar taxes, tobacco taxes, the global warming sin tax(cap and trade) and on and on. All kinds of taxes that are based solely on trying to "help" you make better decisions by dissuading you economically from certain other choices.

I don't think anybody could ever argue that what one man does to another man's body is healthy. Therefore, if it's unhealthy, will it be taxed? Will there be a gay tax?

KEYWORDS: biggovernment; gaytax; obama; orwellian; straighttax; taxes; taxincreases
Actually, as I think about it I think I have seen some studies somewhere that have pointed out plainly that what one man does to another's body is unhealthy.

Abortions also lead to a whole host of health issues...

I am afraid you don’t understand. Being gay is normal, even a virtue. I think what you mean is a ‘straight tax’.

LOL

Maybe there will be a straight tax, Obama is incredibly orwellian.

Freedom is slavery! War is Peace! Gay is straight! Ignorance is strength!

Sodomy tax.

Abortion tax.

Sex with animals tax.

Deviant sexual lifestyle tax. (This will cover a LOT of folks btw.)

All very unhealthy and dangerous behavior.

The way Congress has managed to use the commerce clause as a means to do whatever they like, they'll just put a special health tax on all meat whether commercial or privately raised.

Actually, under ObamaCare, HIV treatment will be dis-allowed as too expensive and ineffective, and all HIV-positive gay men will likely be LITERALLY thrown under the bus, if they don’t “take the pill”. . .

Taxing Gays is a great idea if you are a politician seeking money.

Most gays have quite a LOT OF CASH!

This certainly would not be fair to the gays, however, politicians more than likely could care a less about fairness.

So there you have it, another HUGE revenue stream available for the politicians to tap!
