Frustrated? Play this Tax Whack
Are you one of the many Washingtonians who is frustrated with age-old tax exemptions that don't make sense? Well, now there's a way to relieve some of your stress and vent by playing the Whack A Loophole Game.
It's meant to be funny and serious at the same time. The point is, the state is losing a lot of money on exemptions that simply don't make any sense at all - we're shelling out millions of dollars every year to gold buillion dealers, country clubs, stock brokers, accountants, lawyers, lobbyists - and bull semen producers.
With the state facing a huge budget crisis, shouldn't we be thinking about closing some of these loopholes before we start cutting back on money for healthcare and schools? For example, isn't giving our teachers competitive pay more important than a tax break for bull semen producers?
