The New York Daily News reports on the Botax protests held Sunday in Times Square:
Don’t tax our ta tas!
That was the word Sunday from New York women outraged over a Washington proposal to add a 5% tax on all elective cosmetic surgery – everything from boob jobs to Botox to face-lifts.
“It is unfair. A lot of people have to save up to get these procedures, and to add a tax is unbelievable,” said Sina Mostel, 52, a banker from Forest Hills, Queens.
“There should be other places to find the money.”
Plastic surgeons have joined forces with outraged citizens to stop the tax:
A website stopbotax.org founded by plastic surgeons, is gathering signatures of opponents, hoping the proposal gets nipped and tucked as the controversial health care bill is debated.
