Oppose Sales Tax on Gym Memberships
Filed Under: Freedom & Politics
If you live in New Jersey, you may or may not know about Governor Corzine’s proposed institution of a 7% sales tax on health club memberships. It’s simply ridiculous to increase the cost of health club memberships that ultimately serve to decrease the cost of health care by encouraging people to lead healthier, more active lifestyles. The Governor is also proposing an increase in the general sales tax from 6% to 7%. Please voice your opposition to this proposed tax by visiting this web site and clicking on “click here to write email”. There is form to fill out that automatically sends your message to all relevant politicians.
Thank you for your support.

Like most taxes…we probably shouldn’t have them in place anyway. Governments at all levels REALLY need to look at how taxpayer money is spent and decide if this is something that should come from the public coffers…or simply wind up on the ash bin of history.
I’m a huge believer in personal responsibility! Most, what I’d consider non-essential programs, benefit those that have made choices in their lives that put themselves at significantly higher risk for need of bail out. Whether it’s problems with drugs, alcohol, too many children, choosing to live 10 feet below sea level in a coastal region or whatever…the money I send Washington somehow winds up far from where I live, benefitting people that should have known better.
Oh well…that’s life. So much for being awakened by a thunderstorm early this morning! Maybe I can go to my child’s school on Monday for some free therapy from the psychologist, huh? (Yeah, right. Heard worse outgoing in Desert Storm. Bah hah!)
See you on the high ground!
