I'm watching a talk on CSPAN from the AEI on Iran and I just learned of a 6% tax that is paid into the personal account of the Supreme Leader of Iran. Now I find this *really* hard to believe, so I went to google and I have yet to find anything authoritative.
I did find another blogger who thought this "fact" was blog worthy.
Makes corruption in Argentina look sophomoric, no?

The straightest of shooters, Iran expert and Pajamas blogger Michael Ledeen discusses with moderator Austin Bay the mullahocracy of Iran.
One thing I didn't know: Every purchase in Iran has a 5 to 6 percent "Supreme Leader tax" into the pocket of Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenei.
Ledeen knows of no other such "tax" among the world's nations.
