Yeah, Well See, We Need The Money And You Need The Product.
Poor Kansas.
Seriously, Poor Kansas. They don’t have any money.
Facing a $238 million dollar deficit, Kansas has made the decision to auction off sex toys it confiscated for back taxes.
Kansas’ budget woes are so dire that the state government has resorted to selling off furry handcuffs and vibrators seized by its revenue department.
The Topeka Capital-Journal first reported on the sale Wednesday, explaining that the new bounty, numbering in the thousands of items, resulted from a five-shop, four-city raid on a company that owed more than $163,000 in state taxes.
What? There are no seized drugs we can put on Craig’s List?
The “toys” will be sold online by the original owner with the agreement that he will use the profits to pay back taxes. This assumes, of course, that the owner of the emporium known by the name of “Bang” can be trusted to pay his taxes this time when he didn’t last time.
Let’s see, there was a decision to be made: Kansas can either accept the Medicaid expansion funds or go into the porn business. Apparently, that was not as difficult a decision as you’d suspect.
Thanks to Steve for the heads up.
The amazing part is that there was a business in Kansas required to pay taxes. I thought they’d gone full Voodoo.
1I would prefer Medicaid to porn were I in Kansas.
2What! No bake sales?
3Gee Haw! Hypocrisy, irony and porn all rolled up into one big Kansas yard sale.
4Or maybe they shouldn’t have lowered taxes and they wouldn’t have had to go into porn.
5Strict,straight whitey wingnut christians know how to party and whitey wingnut jeebus condones sex toys but not healthcare for the poor.
6Too funny…porn the only thing “taxable” in Kansas.
7Strict,straight whitey wingnut christians know how to party and whitey wingnut jeebus condones sex toys but not healthcare for the poor.
8Wait a minute, I thought Brownback was all about jobs, jobs, jobs.
9Wait wasn’t there a porn department mentioned in the Tea Part textbook Nineteen Eight-four?? Part of the Ministry of Truth…
10This is even more pitiful and pathetic than Detroit. Now Kansas won’t have to secede. It will be laughed out of the union.
11I do not want to think about the kind of person who would buy a used vibrator. No matter how much a good new one costs. Not that I would know.
12Hey, it’s Kansas. When you’re talking bondage items up for sale, you’re talking 14 dozen confiscated sheep halters.
13This is getting a lot of TV play like on Morning Joe on mnbc. So is Sarah Palin’s appearance on Roberts campaign. Last week it was old Bob Dole. The is desperation spelled out in neon lights.
14First they sell the sex toys, then the furniture and jewelry.
15Sounds like Desperation. This is what the denial of facts brings: Ruin!
Well, since sex toys are Illegal in Alabama, think of the millions of dollars in sex toys they have have confiscated. They could supply many porn stores~
16Perhaps it’s time for Kansas to redesign its license plates (or at least offer a new customized one). They can replace that boring wheat with pink, fuzzy handcuffs which better portray the current state of the state.
17Ok I will buy a used car, used home, used jeans even used furniture but I draw the line at used sexual deeevices, regardless of the kind, cuffs, riding crops or ummm rubber fetch toys.
18Not that I would know,but the only toy you can be and be assured it has not been used is the Muslim Woman inflatable doll, the kind that blow themselves up.
19So…now Kansans are having pornflakes for breakfast?
