Obamacare will tax some unhealthy lifestyles. Now, we should add users of sunbeds to the list. From the story:
The International Agency for Research on Cancer announced Wednesday that it had elevated sunbeds, used by tens of millions of people for tanning, to its highest cancer risk category…The risk of melanoma — the most lethal form of skin cancer — increases by 75 percent when use of tanning devices starts before the age of 30, according to the findings, published in the British medical journal The Lancet Oncology.
Tax the tanners! Think of all the money we could get from George Hamilton alone.
