What do you guys think of the Governor of Texas Perry adding a $5 tax on admission to strip clubs in Texas? Do you think it will spread to other states? Perry is making a moral judgement on all who attend stating that this would be a tax on "unhealthy behavior". Since when is entertainment unhealthy?

A few weeks ago I bet the religious right would have raised a storm if you suddenly stated a $5 tax would be added to admission to movie theatres as a tax on adult entertainment to go see "R" rated movies such as "The Passion".

On the other hand RL may not be able to afford to go to another strip club again, lol.

Some are so quick to pass judgement on others behavior. Isn't it adult entertainment to go see R rated movies? Isn't "The Passion" adult entertainment?

Taxing cigarettes has not stopped people from smoking and the taxing authorities enjoy the revenue.
