Cones Tax

Apparently NZ has spend around $89M on traffic cones, why so freakin' many and to do what?!

Well, no one really cares until they found out that it's ALL PAID by tax money. 

So, $89M at $29 each. With a population of 4M, we almost get a cone each.

And since you've already paid for it, might as well amuse yourself with them while driving to work, better still, run them over, there's more than enough.

    More cones, more worry, more tax money spend (on cone police even!)

    But running the cones over doesn't count right :)
