Personally I think it’s a subsidy for Vacuum Cleaner bag manufacturers.

Did congress decide this tax? I don’t see where it says they did. Am I missing it? (I’m on medication for my tooth and my head is fuzzy)

A tax to advertise the benefits of live trees over fake ones. Ah ha ha haha ha! Yeah just as soon as they use 100% of the money for entitlement programs.

Can anyone explain why this isn't a tax on Religion?

I think it is, and as such is illegal.

How the hell can a department impose a tax? Even King George III had to go through Parliament to impose taxes on us. Christmas tree dealers should refuse to pay it.

Another Obama attack on Christianity.

How about a tax on muslim “honor killings”?

It would bring in more money.
