Government does a good job wasting resources. But fun to watch peoples ingenuity getting around restrictions. In Denmark until recently car importers used to transform Land Rover Discoveries (LR3 in the US) and other cars to auto campers (an RV in USA-language). You had to do some modifications for it to qualify as a "camper". Like the roof that needed to be able to be raised and it had a little kitchen. So they installed a token kitchen etc. The tax would be something like 60% instead of 180% (plus 25% VAT). And in Denmark you can still take the back seat out of most SUVs and station wagons for it to qualify as a van and get a discount on the tax. So a bunch of people drive around with cars without backseats. A waste of cars and resources. I wonder what the true story of that chicken trade barrier is. Europe doesn't issue taxes or tariffs, because it's a continent, not a political entity. Turkey is transcontinental with most of it being in Asia.
