Raising a Ruckus

How much do you think a Ruckus is worth?

It seems pretty evident that a good many States are frantically trying to figure out how to bring in more revenue by taxing just about anything. And I mean anything.

Clowns. Clowns? 

Yup, seems to be what Maine is proposing. Ironically, Nebraska has proposed a tax for dating services. Had they joined forces they could have had a twofer. I am not exactly sure how it would work, but I am pretty certain that participants in the dating services would have the opportunity to report the clowns they have run into who slipped through without being surcharged. 

We are all watching with bated breath, that would be really deeply, inhaled, bated breath, for what California is going to do. A referendum is on the table for the legalization of marijuana for recreational use (with a limit on the amount one can have in their possession). The amount of revenue that it is believed this would generate is one billion dollars. One billion dollars! 

Tax your clowns, jugglers and comedians or roll a joint, munch a bunch and get the giggles. 

You decide which is the more sensible tax revenue that will aid and abet the coffer in your state.
