Will liberals demand a new tax on tumbleweeds now that they're profitable?

Question

Someone started a profitable business selling tumbleweeds. The Left's worst nightmare: Profit Can't have people being self-sufficient, you know. That would mean people doing things for themselves. Totally goes against the grain of the Left's agenda of a cradle-to-grave Nanny State

Will they also have the EPA make the tumbleweed (also known as Salsola or Saltwort) a protected species to head off this obscene exploitation?

Answer 2

You're under a big misconception about liberals. I can tell you aren't out in the working world yet. She is already being taxed on her profit. More likely her neighbors will start charging her for the tumbleweeds she gets from their property. Everybody will want a cut.

There is no such thing as cradle-to-grave welfare anymore. In 1996 a law was passed that limits welfare to 5 years in a lifetime.
