So I guess that New Zealand no longer welcomes those darned Hobbits that brought so much revenue into their country, and are no longer welcome to have a bowl of Old Toby at the Prancing Pony - at least legally.
(You know that the black market is going to explode in NZ.)
I remember a time long ago when taxes were used as a 'control' to manipulate a government's subjects.
That didn't turn out like they intended it to...
Tea, anyone?
