things considered a necessity to live are not taxed  
(i.e, non served food, clothing, and apparently tp)

I woudln’t exactly waste my time suing over something like this though. Maybe if I was poor and they were taxing me to death at Giant Eagle or something, but not on tp. Just buy the cheap sand paper shit.
