Heather,

I wonder if the vegetarian pizza I order is subject to the same tax as the pepperoni, sausage, double-extra cheese, chocolate, potato chip pizza other people order.

I agree. Perhaps we should just have a tax on bad parenting.

Taxation is not about revenue - it is about controlling peoples lives and actions. Really, do we really have to try to limit people's freedom to be fat and unhealthy? If someone wants to be obese, they should have the freedom to do so - without having to pay additional taxes for that freedom. Oh, and as a long time Domino's hater, I must say that the new recipe is worth trying. It is far from the best pizza on the market, but the one I got was only like $5. It may be the best $5 pizza on the market. These “researchers” just reinforce what I have been saying all alone. Taxation is not about revenue – it is about controlling peoples lives and actions.
