Current Drudge headline. Can't post from Bloomberg, thus this older article about the same issue.
If Berlusconi's past comments about Obama's "great tan" are accurate, then Obama may have some back taxes to pay! Guard your burgers and fries, since fast food may be the next to get hit with the "unhealthy tax".

Botox tax was in the offing and this was the substitution. I guess that Kerry and Pelosi like their botox providers.

Honestly, why did they single out tanning salons?
Why not gay bathhouses? (I guess I know the answer to that one.)

They changed a bill already voted on? That is how this reads.

Please insert coins sufficient to pay the Obamatax to unlock the tanning bed.

Liberal failed Economics at work.
1. Tax and regulate business
2. business pass these costs on to consumers (higher prices)
3. government creates departments and hires people to regulate business and enforce the taxation
4. government passes costs on to citizens through higher income tax.
Obama government reform is screwing the middle class twice for the same nickel.

Okay, so instead of getting a tan, go and have your teeth whitened and look like you have a tan.

I can’t believe the numbers. $3B on 10% over 10 years is a ~$3B/yr industry. For tanning salons?

This tax violates the Civil Rights Act. It discriminates against white people.

Someone I know who is in her early thirties, loves to get a tan in one of these tanning salons. She also voted very emphatically for Zero. Oh the irony of it. These people need to hurt, hurt, hurt. They won’t understand pain until they feel it in their wallets.

Most of these tanning salons do something else as well as tanning such as hair styling. I imagine you are going to see a lot of tanning sessions charged as something else to avoid the tax...
