How about taxing your kid’s grades in school? AFTER ALL, we KNOW that kids who don’t make good grades in school are a DRAG on society as a whole ...
So, lets say that the cost to educate a kid is $10K/year.
Then, we tax based on grades:
A = 0% [$0], B = 5% [$500], C = 10% [$1000], D = 15% [$1500], and E = 20% [$2000]
But WAIT A MINUTE, thats not FAIR !!! Those with BETTER grades should be the ones that are taxed.
So, we tax in reverse - to spread the wealth around:
A = 0% [$2000], B = 5% [$1500], C = 10% [$1000], D = 15% [$500], and E = 20% [$0]
OOPS!
Forgot to change the percentages. Should be:
A = 20% [$2000], B = 15% [$1500], C = 10% [$1000], D = 5% [$500], and E = 0% [$0]
‘E’ grades? Coming from Obama, that actually would make sense.
