Taxing away the problems of a country



My grandfather had wanted me to be an IAS officer, but my interest in electronics and computers and IIT education distracted me from the path that he had decided for me.

However, I keep thinking every day of new taxes that can be levied!

For instance, we can increase the road tax by 25% and offer a discount of 25% to those who can show they have parking space.

The second Idea is to say that that every cow, bull or dog on the streets should have a secure collar for which the owner should pay a tax of hundred rupees per year. Future ministers will, no doubt, increase the tax to the “appropriate” level! At hundred rupees per year the tax will not create much resistance now.

There are many ways to serve a country, and the easiest is to find new ways of taxing away some of its problems!
