Tax Trivia 2011: Tanning Tax

We have a winner! See the correct answer in the comments. Also see this prior post.

Our first tax trivia question for the giveaway is:

The infamous tanning tax wasn’t Congress’ first attempt to raise revenue at the expense of the vain. What alternative tax, which was replaced by the tanning tax, was expected to raise more than twice the revenue raised by the tanning tax?

The first correct answer wins free free CompleteTax online tax prep software.

Remember that you have to comment on the actual post, not on email, Twitter or Facebook, in order to win (though feel free to comment that way for fun). You can read the rules for the giveaway and more about the prizes here.

What’s your guess?
