No Child Left Inside Tax!


In New Mexico there are several groups lobbying their state lawmakers to propose a tax on Video Games and Televisions to fund programs that encourage outdoor education for kids. They are proposing a 1% tax for all Televisions, Video Games and Video Game accessories that are purchased throughout the state. I personally think this is a wonderful idea and I would like to see the program insituted in New Mexico and other states. Hopefully the idea will move ahead full steam and the powers that be will do something to get kids out of the house and outside running around and staying healthy.
