Nev. Sex Acts Tax Faces Stiff Resistance
A bill that would levy a $5 tax on sex acts appears to have no chance in Nevada’s Legislature, even though the state is facing a more than $2.8 billion revenue shortfall.
“I don’t know why people won’t recognize that we have a legal industry,” said state Sen. Bob Coffin, who is pushing for a tax on the world’s oldest profession. “I’m willing to go in and do the dirty work if no one else will.”
Perhaps not the most felicitious choice of phrasing.
