Title: Norway Strip Clubs Tax Free Because It's 'Art'
Post by: Foxy Brown on December 06, 2006, 10:33:37 PM

A Norwegian court ruled on Tuesday that strip clubs did not have to pay value added tax (VAT) because their services were a form of art performed by artists, a Norwegian news agency said. (http://abcnews.go.com/International/story?id=2702429)

As someone who lives in Portland, Oregon -- the city with more strip clubs per capita than any other city in the US -- I heartily approve. And those strip clubs? Fully nude. What...you thought Oregon was called the "Beaver State" because of our wildlife?

(BTW: we don't have sales tax either. AND we don't have to pump our own gas. Yeah, it's off-topic, but I gotta represent the 'hood.)
