Romanian Witches Protest |
|
 Romanian witches plan to cast an anti-government spell as a protest over plans to tax witches. The new law, part of drive to collect more revenue and crack down on tax evasion, will force the likes of witches, astrologers and fortune tellers to register their professions and become liable for 16% tax in line with other self-employed Romanians. The witches are hoping to put a Macbeth-style hex on the country’s president Traian Basescu and his government and plan to gather on Romania’s southern plains and the banks of the Danube to protest against the laws and cast spells on the politicians who implemented them. The Queen witch Bratara Buzea said she would lead a chorus in casting a spell using a concoction of cat excrement and a dead dog. “They want to take the country out of this crisis using us? They should get us out of the crisis because they brought us into it,” she said. (Source: www.guardian.co.uk)
