I’m way behind in my reading of other tax blogs this week. I’ve been busy with personal stuff, and thanking my stars I’m not a tax evader in India.
For India, a nation of chronic tax evaders, has set dancing eunuchs on the scene. My thanks to Joe Kristan of Roth Tax Updates and the TaxProf Blog for the heads up.
Were the Eunuchs successful? According to the Reuters story, absolutely! “Some paid in cash, while others quickly wrote checks. The shock therapy, which we plan to use sparingly, was a grand success,” Atul Prasad, a top official in impoverished Bihar state, of which Patna is the capital, told Reuters Friday.
And as Joe Kristan said, if you don’t know what a eunuch is, well, half the population can’t be one and the other half doesn’t want to be one.
