oh bummer! remember the yacht tax and it's consequences? It was suppose to be a good way to tax the rich and help redistribute the wealth. It only slowed down the sale of yachts crippling the yacht building industry and causing the lay off thousands of their workers. It also caused a loss of sales taxes revenues for states. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Another great example of good intentions going wrong. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions!"

Don't worry! Be happy!
