Taxation on the use of sunlight

Created by J.M. on June 15, 2014

Sunlight is a leading cause of cancer, being a serious contributor to more types of cancer than cigarettes. We tax tobacco manufacturers, therefore we should also tax those responsible for sunlight. As such I move that all employers who organize their main work shift in daylight hours pay a small additional tax for the increased health risk. I further move, considering that all organized religions claim that god created everything, that religion be taxed, as gods representatibve, to offset the costs to our nation for the treatment of these cancers caused by Gods sun.
