Boob Tax
Rich notes that the Knoxville City Council (henceforth known as the the Knoxville Titty Council) are pimps:
The dancers must pay a fee to the City of Knoxville in order to ply their trade. Now, what’s the street name for somebody who profits off of a woman’s sexuality?
In order to be a stripper, you must pay a tax. He also has come up with the wonderful new slogan for Knoxville tourism:
Hi! Come to Knoxville! We’ve run every sports team that isn’t irrevocably tied to the city out of town; we’ve passed taxes that insure that no major musical act will ever play our city again; we have no museums of any note and we’ve voted down every idea that might have brought some culture or entertainment to our downtown area. (Except for a new movie theater, an idea we found to be quite daring.) We’re closing the titty bars, and we require that you show your papers every time you buy a drink; we’re working on banning smoking in public but we don’t mind if you chew, as long as you don’t spit.
And our most exciting attraction is the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame!
