No one wants to have to pay taxes. However, as it is a mandatory charge, we are all obliged to make the due payment. In this view, there are charges made in some places in the world that seem so absurd, but that unfortunately people have to pay.

Over time, official representatives have achieved jaw-dropping collections that are hard to believe. Moreover, such absurd situations do not only occur in poor countries. Many powers also had the courage to demand absurdities from their population. See some cases below:

tax for free men

Several places in the world have adhered to this tax, which obliges men to marry up to the age of 25. Thus, if you are over 25 and a single man, you are charged for this. The idea is that men do not lead a libertine life and that, indirectly, they are forced to enter into a relationship.

TV viewing tax

You've probably watched TV at least once in your life and didn't pay for it. But be aware that in some countries, like England, you would pay around R$1,000 a year to watch something on television. It doesn't matter what medium you watch it in, but if you have access to programs and commercials, you must pay for it.

treason tax

There are several stories of those who have already been betrayed or betrayed out there, but be aware that in some places this act could cause the unfaithful to be charged a certain amount. In Great Britain, those who cheated on their partner were charged by those who supervised the moral behavior of the population.
