Should we put more tax on carpets?

Answer 1

I seem to have missed that off my list..
Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table

At which he's fed.

Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes
Are the rule.

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.
Tax his ties,
Tax his shirt,
Tax his work,
Tax his dirt.
Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,

Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries, then

Tax his tears.
Tax his car,
Tax his gas,

Find other ways
To tax his ***

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers,
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.

Put these words
upon his tomb,

"Taxes drove me
to my doom..."

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

Answer 2

Yes.
Why in the republic of Czech they have the NCT, or National Carpet Tax. This has been found to be extremely popular with carpet sellers around the country and now the citizens can enjoy free ambulance cover with the purchase of a rug. Carpet tax has also been proven helpful in Austria, where the money gained from it goes towards educating mentally challenged rabbits how to pickpocket, which in itself raises even more money for the politicians.

Answer 3

Yeah, why not? The government has taxed everything else. We could think of taxes with each step taken on a carpet. A penny per step.
