Tanning Tax Whining Is Ridiculous

I have been amused listening to these far-right commentators whining that President Obama is being racist against white people because of this tanning tax.

A tanning tax is a vanity tax. If people are that obsessed with how they look then they should be willing to spend the little extra to showcase their bodies.

It's interesting how, in some ways, it is fashionable to have darker skin. Does this mean these right-wing nuts (including the likes of Jim Quinn) are saying President Obama does not want more people with darker skin?

Go lay out in the sun. That's tax free.
