> that’s definetly fucked. They have to leave it on display in a public museam or get in deep shit and they can’t sell it, so how is it fair to pay any tax on it. That is the very definition of worthless if you ask me. Plus one of the idiots that appraises the stuff for the govt. said point blank they go by their subjective opinion of “artistic” worth not fair market value.

I would figure the law would state the fair market and accurate resell-able value and not what someone thinks it should be worth.

Also where the fuck do they come up with 65 million dollars? Not to mention how does it go from 15 million to 65 million in a matter or months?
