Confetti gone bad

Every year at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade there tons of confetti flying through the air, this year the parade goers found something interesting and disturbing  about it. They noticed that it was shredded up police documents, but they were still legible. On these sheds of documents there were social security numbers and banking information for police employees, some of them were undercover police officials. They say that the documents were shredded horizontally and Newsday says that it is one of the least secure methods of shredding documents. This allowed entire lines to be able to read.

Carrot for a movie

A movie theater in Spain, tried to avoid paying taxes on tickets, by selling carrots instead.  The tax rate was increased to 21%, and they said that if they continued to sell the tickets they would go bankrupt. They remembered that carrots were only taxed 4% because vegetables are classified as a staple and so that they are not taxed as much as other things. Tax rate on tickets were only 8% so “Spain loves the ‘Carrot Rebellion’.” Shows and theater are selling out even the local mayor is on the owner’s side. Economists warn the owner that he was committing tax evasion.
