Taxing Porn Back in Vogue
For the 2nd time in a year a Pennsylvania lawmaker has proposed taxing strip clubs, this time it is Rep. Paul Clymer. (HT Grassroots PA)
The Tax Foundation has a blog post on this issue today – both on the constitutionality and the unintended consequences. As I pointed out with regard to Sen. Orie’s proposed porn tax, a tax on a very specific industry will only lead to efforts to evade, and worse yet, drive porn further “underground” – exactly the opposite of what proponents of the porn tax are seeking.
