Iowa Taxman Seizes Another Victim - Pumpkins? What in the World?

Being Halloween I hope this fits in this forum,

Crazy?

Not so in IOWA where a new tax policy categorizes pumpkins as decorations

Don't worry, you can fill out a tax exemption from should you want to eat the pumpkin.....

Iowa Tax on Pumpkins Is No Treat

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The taxman in Iowa is going after jack-o'-lanterns this Halloween.
