Nevada Legislators Look at Burning Man: If It Burns, Tax It!

Hit & Run : Reason.com: Burning Man, the annual experimental temporary city of over 50,000 attendees dedicated to art and community, already kicks over $4 million a year of its ticket price to various local, state, and federal governing authorities in Nevada, where the event is held.

INSERT RIGHTEOUS ANGER HERE! This is ridiculous the event only sells tickets as a way of making the money necessary to afford renting the land, and running clean up and such things. And the government is not even bothering to pretend its legitimate, they are using a law that clearly does not apply to the situation to make a little extra money.I hope it does not work, I see no reason why they would be able to get away with it although I have no idea how the legal system works in this situation. Well Good Luck to Burning Man!
