Government Wising Up

The government is wising up, it’s taxing things hard to give up – booze, cigarettes, and illegal stuff. But, really, will it be enough? The religious right now suggests a long-term way with sure success: Let government start taxing sin, a practice everyone engages in; that, effectively, should end one day the need for further taxes, they say. What a windfall that should be with huge benefits immediately! Sinners see such a tax as bankruptcy money lovers an end to their solvency.
