And also, shouldn't there be a big tax on consumer electronics that should go towards health insurance for the poor?
Lets be honest here. The same people that claim they can't afford health insurance are the same ones that walk around with $200 iPods, have 50" Plasma HDTVs, Satelite, cell phones with expensive plans, etc, etc. A relatively high percentage of them smoke $50 worth of cigarettes a week, and drink at least $15 worth of Alcohol a week (that is assuming they are not alcoholics and are drinking at home).
You add all that up and we are talking maybe $400-600 in UNNECCESSARY goods and services a month.
Lets tax "DUMB SPENDING" to help pay for what it is they were supposed to be saving that money for in the first place.
