Interesting notion for NASA funding
<Tax Sci-Fi to Pay for NASA, Says Candidate
Michael Williams, a Republican candidate for the Alabama 5th Congressional District seat, has a novel plan to fully fund NASA: Tax science fiction, according to The Huntsville Times.
Williams proposes a 1 percent "NASA tax" on science fiction books, science fiction comic books, space sciences books and any other space-related literature.
The tax would also apply to "space, space-related, and science fiction toys, puzzles and games," Williams said in a listing of his platform.
