I like your logic about rusty umbrellas!

    Quoting Furbal1972:
    Those hands-free umbrellas wouldn't stand up to a storm around here.
    Umbrellas are only useful some of the time. Great in heavy rain, but useless and even dangerous in a storm. Too much of a pain to carry around most of the time, although there are days where I keep one handy.

    No "tax", but there should be a "fine" if I get spiked!
I'm now realising it's too windy in America to have an umbrella-spiking problem!

Parasols would be exempt from my proposed umbrella tax. I've never heard of anyone yet being spiked by a parasol when the sun is teeming down!

    Quoting LemonSqueezy7116:
    for some reason, a lot of people living here likes to swing their umbrellas and it has almost hit me a couple of times.

    No taxes please, I actually own about 8 of them so I'd be suffering ...

    No rusty umbrellas for me, thank you. Although Mr Happy and I would joke about puting a brolly in the trolley...
Surely if chewing gum isn't allowed in Singapore, then umbrellas are fair game to be taxed!

    On umbrella I now own sits in my golf cart. I still have not used it. I normally get my jacket out when it is raining. No tax on them but everything in Canada is taxed. Hugs V
That umbrella should be your secret club to use when you want to win The Masters!

    I can't recall the ever being stuck by an umbrella.

    There already is a tax on umbrellas... sales tax
Very true, and there'll be an income tax on umbrella workers and a profit tax on umbrella companies. Durely they can take another tax!

I remember when I was little, my mother used an umbrella like this when we went to the beach.

I would exempt beach umbrellas from my proposed umbrella tax scheme!
