Drug Taxes
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/24/nyregion/24drugs.html - So New York is considering a Tax on illegal drugs. They don't actually expect anyone to pay it until they are caught when it just becomes an easier way to confiscate funds.
But apparently Illinois (among others) has had something similar for years - http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=940DE4DA153AF934A35752C0A96E948260
Who Knew? (but apparently as of 1996 is no longer being enforced. http://www.revenue.state.il.us/legalinformation/letter/rulings/st/1997/sg970143.pdf )
Doesn't this just get priced into the risk equation in deciding if it's worth it to be a dealer, and if so how much to charge/markup your prices?
