Personally, I'm against most taxes in general (other than providing revenue for vital services), however if someone wants to go into a strip club, a $5 cover charge is hardly oppressive. Then again, I haven't been in a strip club in many, many years. Whaddaya get for your $5 these days anyway?  ;D

Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

For $5 you are given the rare opportunity to buy a glass of fake champagne for a moderately attractive (if you're drunk enough) woman for about $20 a glass.

Strippers have feelings too.

Just another revenue-earning scheme if you ask me.

Gotta agree with JDog, sounds like another way to make some cash they'll probably squander on something besides what it's ear-marked for.

The Tax Poem

Tax his land, tax his wage, Tax his bed in which he lays.
Tax his tractor, tax his mule, Teach him taxes is the rule.

Tax his cow, tax his goat, Tax his pants, tax his coat.
Tax his ties, tax his shirts, Tax his work, tax his dirt.

Tax his chew, tax his smoke, Teach him taxes are no joke.
Tax his car, tax his grass, Tax the roads he must pass.

Tax his food, tax his drink, Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his sodas, tax his beers, If he cries, tax his tears.

Tax his bills, tax his gas, Tax his notes, tax his cash.
Tax him good and let him know That after taxes, he has no dough.

If he hollers, tax him more, Tax him until he's good and sore.
Tax his coffin, tax his grave, Tax the sod in which he lays.

Put these words upon his tomb, "Taxes drove me to my doom!"
And when he's gone, we won't relax, We'll still be after the inheritance tax.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt
