This doesn’t look at all like me.

Furthermore, I haven’t gone fishing in decades. It would be anticlimactic.

The Vader tax

Baucus’ feeble excuse for a health care reform bill drew quick criticism for its tax on medical devices. Some of the loudest complains were from women upset that feminine products, which are Class I medical devices, would be taxed. So the bill was quickly amended to exclude Class I medical devices.

This still left Class II medical devices costing more than $100, which, it turns out, includes breast pumps. So now the mommy tax is coming under fire.

Neglected in this ongoing discussion is the Vader tax. Practically everything I wear is a Class II medical device except the light saber. (And I’m not sure about that, if FDA decides it is a surgical instrument.) And most of it costs a lot more than $100.

I invite you all to join me in decrying this assault on asthmatic-villain-Americans.

I have a tendency to rely too much on The Lecture.

They never listen.

Of course, you can’t always use the same approach with family that you might use with the crew.
