Daily Giggles

The following were proposed in jest by Simon Sweetman on AccountingWeb:

1. a Twitter tax, levied at .001p per tweet
2. an iPhone tax, levied only for boasting about what it can do
3. a tax on the downloading of tracks simply as part of a campaign to get a Christmas number one
4. a Wii tax levied on the breaking of household objects
5. a tax on irritating ringtones, doubled for Christmas ones
6. a tax on plastic packaging for toys that needs an entrenching tool and a pneumatic drill to open
7. a tax on muzak and double for Christmas muzak, treble for Christmas muzak before December

As Simon says, with all these: “We should be well on the way to clearing the national debt – just need a few more suggestions…”
