I think there should be a 20 cents per square foot tax on green lawns in excess of 1000 sq feet. Think about it. It’s a luxury. Only the upper income people have lawns by the acre. Cutting down on large green lawns would curb water use, ie., waste. Less gas would be used in lawnmowers, saving energy costs.

How about an annual "anti-freedom" tax of $1,000/regulation on HMOs...paid by the board members/officers personally?

Maybe charge lawmakers $10,000 for each bill they introduce that contains or authorized new regulations. Deduct it directly from their pay. $100,000 if it contains or authorizes new or increased fees or taxes.
