Did I read that correctly?
A crawl at the bottom of the screen on CNN this morning says North Carolina
is considering raising taxes on pet food as a means of reducing pet overpopulation. My first reaction would be that it's about as misguided as raising gas taxes to discourage consumption... Anybody here got more background on this? |

You have to wonder what they are thinking. The one that would make sense
would be creating a law that requires those taking in animals must have them spayed or neutered. -- Panther TEK: Staying On Top Of All Your Computer Needs! www.members.cox.net/catprotector/panthertek Cat Galaxy: All Cats, All The Time! www.catgalaxymedia.com "RobZip" wrote in message ...

The one that would make sense would be creating a law that requires those taking in animals must have them spayed or neutered. Greetings... They already have a "registration fee" that is significantly higher if your dog/cat is not neutered. Of course, irresponsible owners don't register or get annual shots. Therefore, they don't pay the fee. lal Living in NC, not looking to pay more for cat food for the spoiled rotten little critters. |
