More good ideas from your government
If you live in New York that is. A Nip-and-Tuck Tax is on the table, along with a proposal to make city workers actually work a 40 hour week.
Holy crap! 35 to 40 hours per week?! I need to talk to Vanderbilt about that.. I want full benefits for only part time work.. maybe we should form a union (*cough cough* not.)
I like the parking tax though.. I pay almost $200 to park my car next to my building at work and at that it's only a hunting license. I'm not guarenteed a spot anywhere near campus unless I make it before a certain time... and forget-about-it if you leave during the day. Bring your walking shoes.
