I think we need to tax Congressional legislation.
For a Democrat the only thing better than taxing “sin” is spending the money it brings in.
The states need to start putting some propositions on the ballots allowing the voters to decide if we should tax the hell out of politicians. I’d vote yes.
I’m so thrilled we have a nanny government that really cares for us.
Next they’ll want to impose a tax on each cup of tea.
Wait...
If 5 percent seems to small ( George Harrison was talking about being taxed in the upper 95 percent rate ) be thankful I don’t take it all, TAXMAN ! cause I’m the taxman.
To think that Connecticut was one of our 13 original colonies. Thank God this woman and the rest of her liberal heathen friends weren’t around in the revolutionary days.
Oh yes, that’s exactly why I vote for representatives in my government, to tell me exactly how I should live my life by way of social engineering via taxation that will persuade me to live my life as my government dictates!
does this mean no more import controls and price supports too?
The sad part is, with the advent of government controlled health care, it is only a matter of time before they will demand we live as they dictate in order to keep health care costs down.
Gee, that could NEVER happen, could it?
you can tell what libtards are really for, or against, by how they want to tax it and restrict it.
cigarettes? you bet.
soda? yes.
sugar? yes.
ammo? oh my god yes.
abortion? nope.
look at how they go after certain things and don’t others. shove this in their faces the next time they tell you the lie they want abortion to be rare. if it were true they’d be going after abortion the same they go after the things they hate. any excuse they offer can be turned around on them.
Frau Blücher! (horses whinny)
A spoonful of sugar makes the deficit go down,
the deficit go doooown, the deficit go down,
Yes a spoonful of sugar makes the deficit go down
in a most financial way.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) is living proof that some kinds of ugliness are not just skin-deep.
The sugar lobby will shred her
Rep. DeLauro. (Rep.: abbreviation of Reptile)
The Wooster Street Monster is more than happy to slap a regressive tax on the useful idiots who regularly vote for her. They know the money will just come back in the form of more entitlements.
