State OKs sale of sex toys online to recoup tax losses

Kansas state government is on the verge of a financial windfall with the auctioning of thousands of sex toys seized by the revenue department for nonpayment of income, withholding and sales taxes, an official said Wednesday.

Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, said there was irony in disclosure of the sex toy sale, while political allies of Republican Gov. Sam Brownback denounced Democratic gubernatorial nominee Paul Davis for a recent report that Davis had been in a Kansas strip club 16 years ago at the same time law enforcement officers raided the nightspot.

Maybe all states should sell sex toys to raise revenue instead of lotteries. or better yet open up strip clubs, Then there wouldn't be any losers. :)

If they're not in unopened boxes, then it sounds pretty unsavory. I dont see how this can be a "financial windfall"
