ok, let's get hypothetical for a minute. Let's ponder the many things Obama and Soros can throw at us to tax next. feel free to add on.

Personal Handgun tax - You get taxed for owning a firearm monthly like car insurance.
Overwalking tax- if you go for a walk over 2 miles you owe $5 bucks to DPS.
Poop tax - your dog poops and you fail to pick it up, you owe $10 to Parks and Wildlife.
Snitch tax - If you get snitched on for speaking out against the Gubment. $20 will be owed to Washington.
Late to work tax - you late for work? $30 out of your check immediately.
Too much gas tax- If you fill up more than once in 2 weeks, $30 to Washington.


this list can get huge. please add on. let's play

I actually would AGREE with the two above. I'm from Germany and you have to go through a hunting training and pass the exam before you get a permission to buy a gun. I cannot BELIEVE that any idiot in America can buy and own as many guns as he wants, regardless of his mental state

And picking up the poop after your dog should be a given. Come on .

A tax on air.

Every year everyone must report to a government doctor who will estimate their air usage for the coming year. Average air usage tax: $1200.00 a year.

So this are not facts, just hypotheticals?

I'll give you a real one that they should give us:
War tax - Show on everybody's paycheck how much they are paying in taxes for the federal government to go around the World .......

It's called Freedom. if the guy hasn't killed anyone, his rights to bear as many arms as he can stack is protected. nothing wrong with that. besides, we do background checks for 1 whole week to make sure no looney tunes get guns legally.

Dog poop is fertilizer. let the hounds take a dump. I knowif I had to take a dump outside, I'm not picking it up.

That's pretty much what I thought. My dad is an avid outdoorsman/hunter and I went through hunter safety and a local gun class before I was allowed to even hold a gun. He also sat me down and taught me quite a bit about shooting safety, plus I was in a shooting sports group in 4H for many years. Yes, I think you should have to be certified to own a firearm.

Also agree with the poop thing. Pick up after your dogs!! Sooo many trails in my area have now had dogs banned because stupid people let them off their leashes and they would poo and pee in protected habitat. So thanks, douchebags with dogs.

I like this one. Add on a tax deduction so we can get that money back too.

Actually, dog poop is NOT fertilizer. There's a big difference between herbivores and omnivores/carnivores and dogs poop is more harmful than it is helpful. Most fertilizer is made with strictly herbivore feces because it actually DOES help plants grow....dog poop does not.
