Luxury taxes

• In conjunction with the above the Italian Government has proposed other rather high luxury taxes for boats, beaches and planes that impact Messieurs; Berlusconi, Briatore, British Royalty and other wealthy [perhaps not so wealthy ] folks who wish to utilize beaches and the like. This impacts the coastal areas all the way down to Sardinia.
  
  Mr. Briatore [ Mgr. of the Italian Formula One Racing Team ] recently hailed by Italy as its latest Champion per anno 2006. He managed " Schumi and Alonzo " the former and current World Champions to victory.
  
  Well, at least there are no discriminatory preferences; Italy after all is a democracy officially, that's of course the supposition; although there appears to be some taxation without representation, a somewhat silly notion we Americans abhor.
  
  When Prince Charles, William, Harry or Andrew come for dinner with Mr. Berlusconi, they may be a little surprised when the Royal Yacht is mightily taxed in the coastal waters of Sardinia.
  
  It's all in a days work, in any case.
