Tax Laughs 11/11

It is well-established that people will go to great lengths to avoid taxes.

The online site taxwriting.com reports that, in the early years of Charleston, S.C., homeowners were taxed by the width of their front porches. Tax-conscious owners built their picturesque homes sideways, narrow end to the street. Apparently, a large "side porch" was not subject to the tax.
