It sounds like Mayor Daley is looking for new ways of generating income for the city. He's raising property taxes as well as implementing some sin taxes. The folks at Schadenfreude have come up with some additional taxes which are definitely needed.
Here's a sampling:
$2 tax for every TV in sports bars.
$35 tax on eating hot wings on El.
$25 dollar tax on your bill at Ed Debevics, Rainforest, Hooters, et al.
A $1500 tax per month on any authentic Irish Bar established in 2000 or later.
