My god is there anything they won't tax? I mean come on. Do these blood suckers just go around trying to figure out every little dime they can get?

I can imagine the slogan now.. We Gotsta Tax Dat A$$.

I don't see how they would even collect any $$ off this, as lap dances are paid for in cash and the strippers are likely not reporting their income.  The city would need an agent in every strip club at all times to track the number of lap dances being given any particular shift.  

 

Where do I apply?

I was thinking the same thing.  How could they possibly enforce this?  Unless, its registered as a sale, like a drink, and the $ placed in the register.

How does this work? A five percent tax means I have to give her $1.05, I just dont get the logistics of it.

My question is, where would i put the nickel?

they ought to cut spending and stop taxing

Tax the crap out of it. I'm outta that game.

Its time to dump the IRS and bring in a flat tax system for all. That will stop the people who don't pay taxes from getting refunds.  And EVERYBODY pays. just a thought

It's a big deal in Philly. They made the law go back 5 years and just hit the clubs with it now. Philly says some clubs owe the city more than $475k. Club owners are suing the city.

From e article I found it sounds like its not a new tax but a new interpretation that dances qualify for the tax. Basically Philly has an Entertainment tax and the Lap Dance is a form of entertainment that is separate from the club (and the taxes it already pays). That's why they can go after back taxes. I agree with the sentiment here and in the article that it smacks of desperation.

come on now that would mean employing common sense.  we all know common sense is left at the door when politics are involved.

I was always under the impression that the lap dance tax was the "Champagne Room"

If they are going to tax sex will that make prostitution legal ?

Spitzer and Weiner are both running for office in NY, and you can be sure they'll oppose such a measure there.

So if you catch something from a filthy stripper or hooker do you have to pay a gift tax

[silverado427 10,731]

I vote for a tax on politicians. I'll call it a sin tax.
