Courthouse fees

One wonders why, if found innocent of all charges, I am paying a ‘Victims  Support Levy’. Especially if there wasn’t a victim any way.

What I really object to is the shit grammar. It should be ‘Victims’ Support Levy’.

Our constitution needs to include a ‘grammar’ clause giving citizens the inalienable right not to be the financial victims of poor grammar.

But the true problem here is that they really did mean to leave off the apostrophe; ‘Victims’ in this context is a proper noun describing a financial line item. Not a group of people at all.
