The Sin Tax
Thailand Travel Kit: Huts, Trip Itineraries, and Tips for the Budget or Upscale Tourist by a Thailand Insider who has lived in Thailand for 8 years by Jack B. Wily ... see you in Thailand ...
alcohol and cigarettes have always been targeted by the fed for personal income.
i mean they say its a sin to smoke or drink... or have sex.
for some reason if a person smokes they have to pad the pocket of a politician. i guess that must be cuz the government is going to give free heath care to all those second hand smoke victims. i mean i guess that must be because a national heath care plan is in place. i mean a real one with a government option.
i mean maybe then a smoker might be asked to pay a little more. i don't know. if we go down that road, i might suggest that a skate board rider pay more because they are more likely to break a leg. i might suggest that people with more than one child pay a natural resource consumption tax. i might as that fat people pay a special food tax because they eat a lot and drive up the price of food. i might suggest that skinny people pay a food tax because they don't support farmers or the system enough. i might ask for a pet tax because pets can sometimes transmit disease.
but our gov did it best. they just ask people who smoke to pay five times the true cost so that they can bring in the bucks. i mean smoking is bad for you.
the real funny thing is that smoking is still legal... i mean, could it be that smoking is legal because every ten years or so some shithead who smoked five packs a day for thirty years sues a tabacco company because he 'just discovered that smoking causes cancer'- i smoke and i guarantee you that there is no one alive who smokes who has not considered the idea that smoking might cause lung cancer-even though statistics say that most people who get lung cancer don't smoke...
i mean the really really funny thing is that the guy-the idiot-is used to bring in billions of dollars to Uncle Sam in the lawsuit. DON'T KILL THAT CASH COW-I CAN HERE IT IN WASHINGTON.
