This went into effect in 2010. Are you in favor of skin cancer? Tanning salons promote skin cancer. When we are on the golf courses or by the pools, we have enough sense to apply sunscreen. The tanning salons are for that all-over tan and no sunscreen is used.
Personally, I feel tanning salons should be banned and not just have a 10% tax put on them.
