Taxing the air we breath may be coming to Washington state. Yes, the insane taxing of every behavior is rising to a whole new level with the proposed “bike tax” in Washington.
According to lawmakers who proposed the bike tax, it would help raise $1 million over the next decade to be used for road maintenance. The new $25 tax will be applied on every bike sold for over $500 in the state.
One Washington lawmaker is making twisted argument in support of the new fee. Rep. Ed Orcutt wrote in an email to a bike shop that the CO2 that bicyclists exhale while riding is just one of the reasons he supports the bike tax.
“Since CO2 is deemed a greenhouse gas and a pollutant, bicyclists are actually polluting when they ride,” Orcutt wrote. Therefore, they should pay taxes to help the environment as well as the roads.
Here is his full email:

Just when I thought the insanity had reached its apex, I read this. Anyone who buys into this guy's argument is just as big an idiot as he is.

Got to give it to the libs. They convince the low information voter that the most abundant natural gas on the planet, CO2, is a major pollutant. Forget the fact that vegetation on this planet inhales CO2 and exhales oxygen for us to breath. No no CO2 is a dangerous green house gas that's going to destroy us all. We now have a whole new avenue to apply more regulation and add tax revenue. What a way to more control peoples life style decisions. Isn't it great we have the liberal left wing nut jobs looking out for our best interests. :sarcastic:

I knew that eventually the Congress would try and find away to tax the very air we breathe! I use to say that as a joke...:blink: ...not very funny now.

Tax us for the air we inhale and fine us for the pollution we exhale. Talk about getting it both ways.

I say they should tax Progressive Liberals for wasting oxygen.

Soon they will tax you for every a@@ hair you got! People with that mentality should be required to seek mental therapy.

The liberals are already working on this one. Abortion clinks are working overtime to eliminate liberals babies. Now the liberal birth rate is so low the liberals have to support illegal immigration and voter fraud to stay in office.

I'm not for abortion, but if it could be made retro active there's a few in Washington that would change my mind!
