This news item caught my eye today, it's an outrage if you ask me.
But if the health-care reform package currently in Congress passes, you'll be paying a 10 percent tax at your neighborhood tanning salon.
The tax would apply to all indoor tanning services. It's designed to help pay for reforms to expand health-care coverage.
The "tanning tax" replaces a proposed 5 percent tax on cosmetic surgery procedures that had been in the bill.
RACISM!
If you tax tanning services then shouldn't you also tax du rags and malt liqour?
