Crack Tax

Shawn told me about this one a few months back.

In one of our grand 'ol 50 states (I forgot which one) you may legally sell crack.

No, I don't mean Plumber's Butt. Not that kind of crack, you silly monkey!

Yes, you and your future employee's may head over to the county office and get yourself your very own Crack License! You can even report your earnings and pay taxes on them!

"But isn't that like waitress tips? Come on, who's honest in reporting that?" I asked Shawn.

But that's beside the point.

It's perfectly legal to sell the drug but it's totally illegal to buy the drug.

HA HA!

OK, let's just suppose your a legally registred crack seller. Now the state has your address, your phone number, the fact that you have a cover job at the local Quickie Mark. All they have to do is follow you around and let you sell crack. Ha ha! It's so simple! You won't be arrested, but all your customers will be! And I thought this was a bad idea.

But who's gonna be stupid enough to register as a crack dealer, let alone pay taxes on the illegal drugs they sell.

Ah, I've thought of that. Crack kills brain cells. Most sellers are users. Most crack heads are not too bright to begin with.

It's genius!
