That sort of taxing would change everything, I think...
And furthermore...I am betting many new and "improved" taxes of all kinds are just around the corner...
They are talking about increasing the gas taxes (state and federal) now that the price at the pump is lower...
Vehicle registration taxes will likely go up in many states
Licensing fees (for barbers, doctors, electricians, etc.) will go up at the state level
Efforts will be renewed to put a sales tax on the service industry (accountants, dentists, interior designers etc.) so they are treated just the same as retail establishments
I could probably go on and on...but the picture is bleak...
Gosh, I hope the financial industry is pleased that we have idiots running the government...because you and I will be paying these bills for the rest of our lives and beyond...
