Agreed. :/ If its a paid job they should pay tax like everyone else, not threaten the government with curses and death.

Mhm. I Don't see why they should get any special treatment really. The only reason they did is because the government is superstitious, but as said this tax would legitimise the job so I'd be happy not angry to pay the tax.

Oh come on, most people misstreat romanians, and now suddenly they see them as equals when it comes to paying taxes?

romani are fairly famous for having more dark witches and gypsies than most countries. (Probably due both to economics and supersticious leader.)
Gypsies are also fairly infamous for fortune telling and invoking dark spirits to curse aswell. Which is why in quite a few gypsies books of shadows you would find several dark invokation spells/summons among other unpleasantries.

Romani are a people, Romania is a country, Romanians are the ethnicity from the country. Romani are in Romania but they also live in different countries too.

I adressed romani as the people, not the romanians. Although, if you check the story, it is quite specifically for romanians.
