The Great Joke Tax
In a kingdom far away, where laughter once flowed freely, a peculiar tale unfolded about a king who decided to tax the very essence of joy itself - jokes and jest.
How the Tax System Works
The king, seeing how much happier his subjects were, realized the error of his ways and repealed the joke tax. Jokester was declared a hero, and the kingdom lived happily ever after.
Royal Decree!
The People's Rebellion
The people of the kingdom, feeling uplifted by the laughter, started to tell jokes and puns again, and soon the entire kingdom was in on the joke.
| King's Treasury | People's happiness |
|---|---|
| Empty | Overflowing |
| Modest | Satisfied |
| Full | Ecstatic |
The king, seeing how much happier his subjects were, realized the error of his ways and repealed the joke tax. Jokester was declared a hero, and the kingdom lived happily ever after.
The King's Plan
The king thought long and hard, and finally came up with a brilliant plan: he would tax the jokes in the kingdom.
“After all,” he said, “everyone enjoys a good joke, so it's only fair that they should pay for the privilege.”
The king's subjects were not amused. They grumbled and complained, but the king was firm:
- 1st level of puns: 5 gold coins
- 2nd level of jokes: 10 gold coins
- 3rd level of one-liners : 20 gold coins
As a result, people stopped telling jokes, and the kingdom fell into a gloom. But there was one person who refused to let the king's foolishness get him down: a court jester named Jokester.
