Minnesota reruns: clothing tax, the weather

http://www.startribune.com/local/202857331.html?refer=y

The computer that runs this universe crashed last week, and they had to restore it from backups. That’s when they discovered that no one had backed up the files responsible for Minnesota for two months, so they just reloaded February.

That explains A) the weather and B) the renewed discussion of taxing clothing, business services, and a broad category of items called “stuff.” Currently, we just tax “things,” but if they also tax “stuff,” another $600 million will magically appear....

If none of this passes, and there are tulips in your yard tomorrow, they found the April backups.
