Having unprotected sex is also bad for "society". I propose that each time someone has unprotected sex, society assess a tax against them. After all, it would only be for the benefit of society
Your examples are ludicrous.. because when you have sex there is no one there to KNOW you are having sex so therefore your example is ridiculous.. and can't be taxed
Try again.. your example was weak and lame and quite laughable.... we tax cigs because we can , we tax alchohol because we can.. those things are tangible and can be measured.. if, when and how someone has sex can not.
We breathe out CO2 which is killing the planet. We should tax the breathing cycle.
Again.. ridiculous.. our breathing out CO2 is part of the natural cycle of life.. plants need our CO2 so that they can make oxygen.
However.. our man made machines and industrial things is what is causing the problem.. and the fact that we cut down the worlds forests (thereby cutting those things that "eat" the co2)..
And.. btw.. is there not such a tax on carbon monixide producing things in existance or in the works?

Lame example
No different than taxing the water, CO2, sugar.... Your body uses those and craps it out which in turn releases nutrients into the soil....
This whole thread is lame and pretty much the epitome of overstepping your bounds into others lives. Let me know when you'll allow me in your house to penalize you on what I think you and your family should eat. As a matter of fact instead of getting tax incentives because you have kids you should have an over consumption tax placed upon your family for reaching out above and beyond what's required to live. At least till they can get out on their own and pay their own taxes.
Human Microchip Implantation (http://www.piercelaw.edu/risk/vol8/fall/ramesh.htm - broken link)
Yeah..so the technology is there.. doesnt' mean the gov't is trying to pass laws to MAKE us have implants
It has some positive attributions to be put in use. (as the article says.. monitoring the implants (not the chip implants performance). it's the nut jobs who think everythign is out to get them including the gov't that is going to think that it's purpose is to control your every move or know your every move..LOL...
Or an identifying factor.. like if you're foudn dead and have one in your teeth.. they can use it to identify the body
You are so freakin paranoid.. Conspiracy theory.. and riduculous
That's no conspiracy theory.
And the unprotected sex thing? There is a way to tell. If the government has its way, and actually does start monitoring our every move under the guise of protecting our freedom.
