10% on tanning salons to help pay for medical bill?
 

Senate Democrats are proposing a 10 percent sales tax on tanning salons, to be paid by the person soaking up the rays. The Food and Drug Administration says ultraviolet radiation from tanning can increase the risk of skin cancer.

I was reading the newest changes in the health care reform bill to get the senators to vote yes on it and they now say they have the 60 votes to pass it

ANd now moveon.org is telling the dems not to vote for the bill

Can anyone say cluster fuck?

I still can't believe they are going to pass this, whats the rush? WHy can't they work on a bill that works with the GOP and come up with something that makes everyone happy?

The GOP is threatening to read the whole bill before the vote, which would delay the vote for 6 months! LOL

Will they start taxing sunbathers at the beach too?

They are adding turnstiles at our local beaches.

do they require you to pay? thats ridiculous

$15/day. Children under 5 are free.

Before long they'll think that they can start charging people for entering and exiting their own home.

Whatever happened to the word "public?"

It is an impossibility to have a bill that will make everyone happy. I personally do not believe that the current Congress will present a health care bill to the President for his signature...as the differences between the House bill and the Senate bill are major and I do not believe that they will be reconciled by this Congress.
