I assume that they are going to charge this tax on the Chippendales' performances too?

Here in Michigan the idiots in the Legislature tried to pass a tax on all manner of services until cooler heads prevailed. I don't know if that included pole dancing, but I'm sure they appointed some kind of fact-finding committee to tour local topless bars and study the situation first hand, since after all that's what we pay our legislators for...

Why exactly are they calling it a "pole" tax? :)

Just put five singles in the "tax collector's" g-string on the way out the door.

"Besides, they argued, the tax is so broad it could apply to concerts by performers like Madonna or Britney Spears who wear low-cut tops."

Well, there's an idea!
