Obama-The Scrooge That Taxed Christmas!
November 9th, 2011 categories: Rants & Riffs
One of my favorite morning radio programs is hosted by the comedian Dennis Miller. When he proposed the headline that leads this blog, I laughed out-loud, listened and giggled much more. Once I gained my senses, I didn’t think it was possible, but a Google search confirmed that Dennis was not joking. It was posted at Foxnews.com.
“One of Christmas’ most recognizable symbols apparently needs a PR campaign — and a new tax to pay for it. The Obama administration has imposed a 15-cent tax on Christmas trees in order to pay for a new board tasked with promoting the Christmas tree industry.” CLICK HERE TO READ THE ENTIRE POST.
To be fair, the purpose of the 15 cent tax is to set up a “Christmas Tree Promotion Board”, but let’s be honest do the Christmas tree growers really need the Federal Government doing this for them? Secondly, if the Christmas tree growers wanted a “Christmas Tree Promotion Board” why not just set one up (in America they are free to do so)? Thirdly, this is evidence that the current presidential administration just doesn’t get it. I can’t wait to vote in 2012.
