That's not a lifestyle tax unless you consider procreating a lifestyle choice. Gay mens lifestyle choices have costs to society in the form of STD's and Aids. We need to make them help pay societies costs for their unhealthy choices.

That is exactly the same logic used in taxing smoking and junk food. Of course you and I both know these taxes have absolutely no relationship to improving health. They just represent opportunistic asaults on segments of society we've been taught it's OK to stigmatize.

Exactly.......and one can not do that to the homosexual lifestyle because it is not OK to stigmatize them.

It's OK to stigmatize some groups. Such as; smokers, Obese, drinkers, White Males 25 to 55, conservatives, gun owners, Christians, and Jews.

Not OK to stigmatize; illegal aliens, gays, Islamofacists, terrorists, etc...

Keep that straight..
