DfM, thanks for this one. The mind boggles at the multitude of taxes and enforcement schemes for brothels. Let the tasteless jokes begin!

Glad to see the ACLU digging in for a REAL cause.

Run the Boy Scouts outta business, but we can't have a t!tty tax now can we.

The bill's sponsor, Democratic Assemblywoman Sheila Leslie, could not be immediately be reached for contact.

They sure they called all the brothels?

That makes me think of the scene in The Producers where Mostel and Wilder exited a theatre with a poster advertising a movie titled War and Piece.

"I'm paying big license fees," Hof said of the fees he pays to operate two bordellos in Lyon County. "If you had two McDonald's and sell 50 million hamburgers a year, it would cost you $300. I sell a little bit of sex and it costs me $200,000 a year. That's enough."

Actually, it would cost your customers 200 thou a year.

Damn thats a good idea my friend. If any of the Republicans had balls they would make it like a 2 million dollar a year liscence to practice abortion in their state.

Or simply have a 100% tax on the procedure costs, as a way to reduce useage. Same logic the lefties use on cigarette taxes hey?

The neophyte young boy goes to buy his first condom. The sales lady says "that'll be $2.18 with tax". The guy replies "I was wondering on you kept those things on".

Nevada lawmakers are also taking up a bill that would impose a 10 percent tax on strip clubs.

Hopefully it won't be a flat tax.
