Good thing we took care of sales taxes on baby items years ago.

(And have made essentials ranging from food and medicine to disaster supplies exempt from sales tax, too).

@crusadepepe Sales tax is a tax on consumption. Young people with families consume a lot more commodities than Boomers. An infant and a 2yr old means a lot of diapers. They outgrow their clothes fast. They need to eat etc. Boomers already have stuff and aren’t feeding children.
