i have an idea too. let's charge 50 cents to activate a walk sign at a crosswalk.

let's force businesses to charge 25 cents to open sliding entry doors.

let's charge everyone a sidewalk tax, an air tax, a tax on broccoli, etc.

this is, of course, what the framers had in mind... right?

I'm actually on board with that idea if it includes a tax cut. Maybe a cut in the vehicl licensing fee for SUVs...that'll really drive the nanny staters nuts.

Our legislators in Washington state tried twice without success (yet) to implement a tax for collecting rain water in a barrel. They said the rain that falls from the sky belongs to them. I am not kidding.
