enjoyable, but nontaxable

With this bunch, if it's enjoyable, they'll tax it. Golf, easy to tax. Running not so easy, but maybe a special tax on running shoes. They tax our guns and they tax our ammunition and then use the money to discourage gun ownership. (It was supposed to go to wildlife and habitat preservation). They could tax our range fees, targets, etc. I can see it now, $1/round $100 per visit to the range. But if they try to enact any of htat, the second amendment kicks in .. one way or another.

Spending time with your children is nontaxable. I'll leave to others to argue whether it's enjoyable (I personally find it quite enjoyable). Conversation in person is also nontaxable - and can be quite enjoyable when it involves political subversion against the reigning liberal fascists - anyone want a soapbox in Hyde park?

Besides which, there is no such thing as a pain-free activity while liberals are around - the point is, no matter how much they tax greens fees at public golf-courses, they will never be able to raise as much tax revenue as they would have been able to raise by taxing you if you were engaged in your customary income-producing activities (i.e., your work - whether it be an employment position for wages or your own business), and thus engaging in activities such as golf instead of being an entrepreneurial go-getter will help in the struggle to starve the beast of the tax revenues that are its life-blood.
