Virginia has a long-established local dog license taxes on dog ownership and recently proposed a tax for, among other things, walking dogs. Clearly the liberals have their priorities wrong as usual. But hey you get what you vote for.

Foreigner from the socialist Nordics here, so perhaps I'm brain washed or something, but I don't get it. After some brief Googling it appears that you mean they have proposed a tax on a service that for some reason used to be tax-exempt.

Why was it tax-exempt? Why should it be?

What sets it apart from any other service where you pay someone to do something for you - such as cook you a meal, transport you somewhere or build you a house?

Virgina is easily one of the worst, most authoritarian states in the USA and it’s not even close

Worst driving laws in the USA by far. The entire existence of “the citadel”/VMI, the dog laws you mention, and a whole host of other authoritarian conservative nonsense.
