I read this ^^^ that's fine by me.
this is the first step towards paying for all those bailouts....
next, they'll tax alcohol, then it'll be some other ****, and noone will care cuz we're talking about smokers and drinkers here....
we'll go through a few of these "special" taxes, then it'll make its way towards your paycheck.
i voted for obama, by the way.
