Why? Because so many oppressed blacks need to have an even playing field, that’s why. Amazing! They found the one thing that only whites use. What’s next? A tax on “Brylcreem?”

Planet Fitness seems to be popular in the Boston area, as I am sure it is elsewhere. More unsuspecting people negatively affeced by Obamacare.

In this Mass. lunatic asylum I don't think many votes will be changed because of Obamacare.
What's the alternative? Vote for a Republican? - Tom

Every member makes more than $250k? Remember, there will be no new taxes on people making less than that.

What if someone has seasonal-affectiveness disorder and needs time in front of a bright light to offset feelings of depression?

Could someone pay the tax and then claim a deduction as a medical expense. Does this effectively make the gym a healthcare facility/clinic? If so, would too much exposure to the UV light create a case against them for malpractice. Would, would... (head explodes)

I just had a thought. Planet Fitness is trying to get a competitive edge over companies that only provide tanning services. They're doing this by getting everyone to pay that tax.

Planet Fitness should spin off their tanning operations since they have a tax that doesn't apply to everything else. Or they should just tax the tanning services. If their non-tanning customers don't drop Planet Fitness, it's their fault that they're stupid enough to go along with this.

And then there's that tanning situation, which is probably worse for ones health than is smoking. What's it doing in a health spa anyway?

We are living in a bizrre world that can only happen with an out-of-control government and value system.

My family goes more galt with every passing week. I no longer have a gym membership. The less we buy, the less we feed the beast. The amount of barter and person to person sales that go on around where we live are truly amazing.

We jus split a steer with a friend and will be doing the same thing with a pig. Holy cow the steaks are amazing.
