Not to worry, the Democraps have ANOTHER IDEA of how to fleece us. Now DONT LAUGH, what I am about to tell you is the absolute truth NOT A JOKE. A Democrapic State Senator here in Fla. is trying to introduce a bill to PAY AS YOU GO. In this case he wants to put a seperate tax on TOILET PAPER to pay to upgrade sewerage facilities in the state. According to his STUDY the average person uses 65 rolls of toilet paper a year (how many do you use, are you counting?). He wants to tax it 2 cents a roll with the monies to go into a special sewerage fund. jdn

"Health care has many causes, to ignore one is stupid.
Malpractice awards are an important start when you look at how many dollars are saved there alone. Then on to the next...and the next..."

Agreed.

But it's idiotic to start with only one of the *smaller* factors, and totally ignore the larger ones.

It's more then idiotic... it's dishonest.
