Democrats Tax Sleep
Sleep is precious. You can go much longer without food than you can without sleep. So of course Democrats want to tax it.
From Maryland:
Democrats pushed through HB 858—a bill that establishes a mattress stewardship program under the guise of promoting safe disposal and recycling. This is another tax on Marylanders as the state sinks into financial turmoil and elevated credit downgrade risks. The new 6% tax on mattresses is on top of the existing 6% sales tax.
How can taxpayers object? It’s for the environment.
The money will be thrown into the maw of a leftist state government that faces a $3.3 billion budget shortfall. By now we know from experience that seizing more money will not close the gap between what Democrats confiscate and what they spend. Rather, it will inspire them to spend even more irresponsibly.
Republican Delegate Mark Fisher wonders what’s next after “mattress stewardship”:
Democrats just passed the ‘Sleep Tax’. Marylanders already pay a 6% sales tax when you buy a mattress. Now, @mddems want you to pay a surcharge. Is that a ‘snoring surcharge’? pic.twitter.com/Pt0atYzupZ

We could have seen this coming back when the Beatles were singing,
(If you drive a car)
I’ll tax the street
(If you try to sit)
I’ll tax your seat
(If you get too cold)
I’ll tax the heat
(If you take a walk)
I’ll tax your feet
And they’ll tax your mattress if you try to sleep.
