Cow Tax

What next? They are proposing to impose a cow tax for cow emmisions. Well what are they suppose to do? People need milk, meat, butter etc. Cows have to eat and if they eat they have to poop and have gas. If they pass such a tax it will force some ranchers out of business and this will raise the price of meat, milk etc. In answer to the last entry I don't know if I can get close enough to the columns to take a picture. This property is on an interstate not one of our little country roads. They are not near the highway and I don't know if there is a safe place to stop as I am busy looking and trying to figure what they are and what they are for. The next time we go to On The Farm I plan to ask the older lady who works there if she knows anything or has even noticed them. I'm not going to tell John I plan to bring this up because he will not want me to ask her.

There's a tax on everything else. Why not cows?

What are they going to think of next?

Most of the foul emissions come from the mouths of the lawmakers in Congress.

What next there is a pill that people can take when they have gas. Maybe you can get the government to pay and the owners can start
giving it to the cows. Maybe the government
needs to have this discussion with the cows
they are smarter.

I laughed when someone said they are going to tax you for the water that runs off your property. Ha absurd! WEll now we have a water run-off fee. I asked what if I build a small wall around the property to retain the water. Can't do that , it would be depriving neighboring properties of the water. SHOOT, THAT MADE SENSE TO ME????????????????

Can you imagine a Tax on Cows emissions, I worked with some Policemen AND women who should not have been taxed BUT instead should have been fined for making emissions in a closed up Patrol Car at 2AM at 20 below zero with the heater on full blast while trying to drink a coffee and eat a doughnut, LoL,LoL!!!

Are you kidding me about a tax on cow emissions?? No way! I know some people who have some "emissions" problems, maybe they should be taxed. LOL

A tax on cow poop. Isn't this a case of BS? Stupid people

Kelly said...

Yes, I have been hearing about this 'gas' tax on cows for sometime. It is complete silliness. Just another way for them to take your money. :( I was curious to see pictures of that place too. Kelly

Yes my husband was telling me about this ridiculous tax on cows. I think he heard it on Rush Limbaugh. I think it is all the environmentalists trying to do this and it is really an outrage. Are they trying to drive our country into the ground more than they have all ready? Grrrr. I really hope this does not become a tax.
