Amen brother, Amen.
I could not say the name of the toupee.
He always claimed that it was “a natural” and the the wife cut and coiffed it LOL
So do gas taxes and alcohol taxes and payroll taxes.
Some videos should be banned from youtube. That would be one I wouldn't want to run across.
It was, however, a wonderful badger specimen before it became his toupee.

What I find succinct in what you say is who are the true liberals and who are the authoritarians?
I would suggest that we are more aligned with freedom.
We put that in a wide forgiving social frame work and the so called left tries to pigeon hole every thing and define us in their diversity/s
The Left is crazy.
I cant go off into a field half a mile away from any one to smoke(on my own time) and some one gripes.
But the same group of folks think we should make smoking pole mainstream and we should afford health care benefits to same sex partners with AIDS.
Honestly NONE of this stuff is the Govs business.
I hated Traficant but he had good entertainment value.
Now I can retire for the day with a smile on my face. Tnx.
Honestly folks why are we taxing people on life style?
I Like ciggies and rib eyes and beer
If I die of a heart attack at 60 how is that more of a burden on society or family than if I live to be 95 on the Gov and familial tit and go blind and incontinent while doing all the stuff the Goobermint says I should do?
Why is it the Gov business to worry about these things?
Tax us ALL fairly, provide defense of the nation and get the F out of the way!
I totally agree. They divide everyone up into their voting blocks and than pit them against each other. If you happen to not be in a preferred block than your screwed. I don’t much care what you do as long as it doesn’t affect others, than I say more power to you. I don’t have much use for people that always want to expand what govt can do for me. Eventually It always feels like they are doing it to me instead of for me.
It is complete BS and the Oldest game in the book.
Divide and conquer.
The Dems have refined it to get the rubes to think it’s about unity while they get them to tear each other apart.
Masters of transference and social BS.
Absolutely not!
Taxes should be low, flat, and only for the purpose of raising revenue to support legitimate state functions. Tax policy should not be used to promote good behavior, beyond the obvious tendency of low taxation to encourage investment and entrepreneurial activity.
Who heaped all these disproportionate taxes on the Po?
Oh! That’s right! I was the ever caring Dems!
It’s for the Chilruns!
Ahh the guiding hand of Gov.
They guide us to fight amongst ourselves
Gnight Gang.
This “Us and Them” taxation dichotomy makes me angry.
Well, wierd hair aside, he made a few good speeches.
{:0)
I had bigger issues with him than the hair, but he talked a good game.
Cigarette tax disproportionately burdens smokers. And smoking is a choice.
bttt - I missed a good thread last night. Had no idea there were so many nanny Bloombergs on FR.
“Just wait until they tax YOUR vice. “
They do: Cigars and Scotch.
