NM wants extra tax on video games Options

[Spectatrix]

And game consoles and tvs. They're calling the bill the "Leave No Child Inside Act". I fucking hate sin taxes!

[1] is sooo sooo very true. It is the American individual who is at fault and it's the responsibility of American individuals to change there ways not the government (as [2] would indicate). Why don't individuals take responsibility for their own actions. If people as a whole got fed up with this whole "what IS this shit I'm eating" and switched to better alternatives, the markets would reflect this. I don't see why you need government intervention, it's the people's responsibly to first individually get out of the situation which would shift the collective train of thought.
