We're used to a seemingly endless range of taxes and surcharges when we fly - passenger taxes, departure taxes, fuel levies. But Maiquetia International Airport in Caracas has taken this a step further - passengers flying out now have to pay 127 bolivars tax (£12; $20) for the air they breathe.

Not surprising. Obamacare taxes you for the privilege of existing.
The TSA charges a groping tax.
I expect the breathing tax will make its way here soon.
What does anything in Venezuela have to do with Obamacare or the TSA?
