Tax Doctor Goes Jogging

Dr. Tax goes jogging. And he's had another idea.

Tax financial transactions

It's the best he can do. Really. If tax isn't involved then Doctor Tax is devoid of ideas. Or so it seems. It may appear fitting to place a tax on jogging, but wouldn't make much difference in Brown's case. Only does a mile. Occasionally. Apparently.

After perpetuating an 'illegal war' back into Afghanistan where it all started and then taxing the very soldiers sent there is so nauseatingly obnoxious. But taxed income is still income via tax. Tax the living, tax the dead. If it moves then tax it. If it doesn't then tax it. Tax a tax? It's happened before as VAT on car tax.

Taxing breathable air will happen
It's inevitable

After all, animals including humans respire carbon dioxide. Animals produce methane. Car engines produce nitric oxide. Humans produce methane, nitric oxide, carbon dioxide and MONEY. Tax them.

 All three

• Why stop there? Taxation of fat is inevitable. A tax levied on being fat should happen, but it won't. It must be a human right to be fat. However, becoming obese could be construed as attempted suicide. Similar to being anorexic. In fact, unless the individual is a 'health freak' (wants to live), then tax whatever it is you do or eat or drink. Water will be taxed. Dirty water will attract a levy as the impurities make it more wholesome. And on it goes getting more ludicrous.
  

More crazy

• The modern form of realism.

Why isn't the government taxed on its tax income? Collected by technical extortion.

• Puffing
• Panting
• Expelling loads of taxable carbon dioxide (probably to be offset by expense claims)
