Taxman
Here (for a change) is a realistic good idea from Polly Toynbee. I've never understood the taboo on asking someone how much they earn. Make it all public, and taxes at the same time. As Toynbee points out, the taxman will always be one step behind determined evaders, just like the music industry will always be one step behind file sharers. If you want to cut down on either in the long run you have to find better ways than running around shouting the odds and flailing a big stick.
