Shit, you know what? You gonna go to the beach? I'm afraid there'll be a 10% tax on that. Sunbathing in your own backyard? Same 10%, but you can write it off if you keep records. There are no surprises left. Why stop there? Shit, you know what? You gonna go to the beach? I’m afraid there’ll be a 10% tax on that. Sunbathing in your own backyard?

WTF! Seriously? The entire state of New Jersey and northeast Guido population will go into apoplectic fits. Fist pumpin' like champs!

Share the pain and all. Uproar would probably be universal. I imagine many of us are well below the originally intended (carefully worded) tax burden to fund this boondoggle, but there is absolutely no way that BC/BS is going to take a tax without passing it on to every consumer they have. Call me crazy, but I simply don't want to fund the health care of a chain-smoking, slacker barista who spends more money on Xbox and weed than time trying to grow up. Now kids, they oughta be able to get free health care with any doctor they want. Come 18 though, it's time to start the path towards meaningful society be it through military service or continued education.
