Well, out by me they figured out how to tax rain. A year or so ago, the county board came up with a rain runoff tax. You know how when a new building or housing subdivision goes up, they always take a certain percentage of the property that is supposed to somehow equal the foot print of the man made alterations and dig pits to put the displaced rain water in that would otherwise soak into the ground that the new man made creations occupy? Started doing it...I don't know, maybe 10 or 15 years ago?
