Even Drug Dealers Have to Pay Taxes

Submitted by dguard on
In some states drug dealers have to pay taxes on their drugs. If they don't in South Carolina, they can be fined up to $10,000 and get up to five years in prison. Perhaps the state needs to get the word out better -- in fiscal year 2007-2008, the South Carolina Department of Revenue collected only $214.
