    LOL, they're taxing pumpkins...

    Not quite sure what to think of this, but they are now taxing pumpkins in Iowa because people don't eat them, they use them for decorations...

    I wonder if they will tax Parsley and that yucky lettuce next?

      I just baked up some pumpkin seeds tonight, I don't think I am the only person that also eats parts of the pumpkin.

        According to the article, you would have to fill out a form to get a tax exemption.

          Bah. Move out of the US, protect your funds very well offshore, get a 2nd passport and be done with it.

            So.... the administration cost for the pumpkin tax probably exceeds the cost of the pumpkin, burdens the taxpayer and creates more employment within the IRS?? Shrewd move
