So us non Christians don't have to pay - cool !
I don't know how many of my Christian friends pay this use tax, but I'd be suprised to learn that they all do.

The fact that politicians appear to have no respect for the citizens of this country also implies that they are not Christians. Might explain why so many of them try to avoid paying their fair share.

Bringing religion into this is wrong. Buddhists, jews, muslims, christians, no matter what religion you are, we re all either exempt or liable for the tax.
