Sorry, but this is one point where I must seem like a granola liberal or something. I think it's needless waste and people should just have fake trees.
But I don't disagree with you, and I prefer the live trees that can be planted after Christmas instead. That's what we'd do if our cat situation didn't necessitate fake trees.
If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

So, accidentally just got in a facebook argument with an opinionated person.

I don't understand the point of advertising Christmas trees, and I'm suprised the objection isn't

Why are we supporting an industry that does nothing but chop down healthy trees to throw them away?

It makes no sense. It's like I said, "nice weather" and you said "Coffee is evil!"

These are trees that are planted specifically for that purpose... and then replacements are planted.

Oh, let me be clear for the record: the tax is a pile of steaming horseshit.
