Nope, doesn't bother me. In-office teeth whitening cost: $650 per visit (on average) nationwide. 5% tax on that amount = $32.50.

It's just another luxury tax. It's true that it's not only rich people who get cosmetic surgery--which ought to make you happy, since you're always upset about the idea that rich people would be unfairly taxed more than others. You can't seem to reconcile whether you want everything to be fair for everyone, or for government to stop targeting us average middle-class folks. If you think there should be no taxes for anything, just come out and say it.
