Good idea! And here's another: a $10 tax on anyone who goes to an all-you-can-eat buffet with a hoveround or similar vehicle. I'm sick and tired of these heaps of flesh using my health insurance money to pay for their self-imposed health problems.

I heard the "insane-blyman" on the news say that he wants to "protect people." Well here's a thought peanut. Protect us from bad roads, unemployment and other things that are right for your job title. Leave what we eat up to us. The food that fuels my LIFE should be dictated by my LIBERTY and eaten in the pursuit of my HAPPINESS. You Demoncraps need to get out of our personal lives and wallets.

I only had to read the title to figure out that this proposal was by a Liberal Democrat. Damn you people are becoming predictable and are way over stepping your bounds!

The whole idea behind the creation of our country was freedom to live how you choose, and that government must have the consent of the governed. Really sad we elect idiots who cannot manage their own lives and give them authority to manage ours.

First thing...who ever voted this idiot in should vote him out next time around. Second, maybe this idiot should move to NY, he'd get along with their mayor just fine. Our government has got themselves into trouble by their over spending and now the want to tax the hell out of us for problems they created!!!
