Idea: Add 10 questions to the tax form that ask for the price of common household items/groceries. For each wrong answer, increase the tax by 10 percent. The question has to be answered by the individual and cannot be modified by accountants. Give it a fun name like “price is right tax” and snuggle it in the spending bill.

I see milk thrown around as the common thing people are supposed to know about. I'm lactose intolerant and have no idea how much a gallon of milk costs. It's unlikely you could find 10 things that everyone buys and has similar pricing across brands and variations.

Do a ski jump score, of dropping the highest and lowest score, so you can have two shitty answers, and only scored on your middle answers.
