Good God, does the government have to tax everything...oh silly me, how else do we pay for an $800 BILLION health care system that won't work!

In my practice of yoga for over 8 years I have progressed in a spiritual way as well as a physical way, the two cannot be separated for me.In no other physical exercise has spiritual teaching, prayer, meditation been included as it is in the historical practice of all authentic yoga teaching.
Also, may yoga studios seem to operate on a shoestring and I feel this tax could force many studios out of business therefore reducing the availability of important spiritual practices.

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Taurus

It's important that you leave yourself plenty of room to manouvres during the weeks ahead, as Mercury turns retro today, especially when it comes to making decisions and airing your opinions to the world. You need to be as flexible as possible right now, otherwise you could find that you've boxed yourself into a corner and have to do some serious back-tracking. You need to consider all points of view and not just your own.
