Basically anything valuable you earn in virtual worlds such as phat epix in WoW may be taxable in the future. What do you think? Just another reason to practice tax evasion? or is it the product of jealous non-raiders wanting to see raiders get screwed over?
edit: just some thoughts, seeing as how Blizzard's Terms of Use effectively says everything belongs to Blizzard and that the only thing you are paying for is the right to use and play their game, wouldn't the taxes apply to blizzard only? This is of course assuming I've intepreted the ToS correctly and that Blizzard doesn't pass the taxes onto the rest of us, even so how will they distribute the taxes? only to raiders or those who have epics? or evenly across all players?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
