Tax Guru-Ker$tetter Letter

State to tax illegal drugs. Tennessee targets dealers, users with new levy. - Thanks to Bill at HobbsOnline for this perfect example of "if you can't beat them, join them." Since the Drug War is impossible to ever win, governments might as well make some money off of it. Also, as Al Capone found out, not paying taxes is treated by our rulers as much more important crimes to prosecute than other trivial things, such as murder and drug dealing; so those drug pushers in Tennessee had better not miss a payment.
