The internet raiders proposed a stupidity tax "directly proportional to a person's job," therefore suggesting that a dustman would pay about 100,000 lei (six dollars) while a government minister or the president would have to pay tens of thousands of dollars for doing something unintelligent. The false web page also proposed that delinquants should be exempted from paying taxes, while the finance ministry itself should be abandoned, police said. A spokesman said police can do nothing even if they catch the culprits, since Romania has no legislation dealing with such cases. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is the Neither public email list, open for the public and general discussion.
