In the spirit of keeping the spend thrifts afloat in Washington, I thought we could all get together and come up with some new inventive ways to raise revenue to throw into the federal abyss.

After all, we need to keep the national parks open. The bears have already formed a soup line.

Stop the madness!! 😠

Oh, I forgot, I failed to provide some of my ideas.

Here it goes. Here are some things they can sell.

1. Officially autographed "twerk" cigars signed by former president Clinton.
2. Bumper sticker with a picture of a commode saying "I need to drop the Obamas off at the Oval office"


Now for some inventive taxes

1. Breath tax. After all, you are polluting with your CO2 emessions.
2. Child tax. You are producing children that pollute.


Anyone else?

A walking tax is in order.
Think of all the wear done to side walks across the states. The upkeep is costing us millions.
And after all, the constitution does not give us a right to walk in public. It is a privelige.

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat.
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.

My face is not on the pennies. The face is that of the US Government. Render unto Caesar.

Not to mention the increased water consumption with the long walks. After all, our natural resources are far too scarce for excercise.

Caesar only owns that which has his face on it. You don't have to give him your house, or your clothing, or your TV, or your motorcycle, or your wife's jewelry.

Give him that which has his face on it. Money.
