A person who posts ads on Craigslist who have no idea what their items are worth. They start with an absurdly high price hoping that someone as dim witted as they are will pay it. Often uses incorrect grammar and a bevy of misspellings in their ads.

In contrast to the rank-and-file "useful idiot" (typically a disposable agitator), a "professional idiot" earns a living satisfying regime objectives. Examples include teachers, scientists, economics, and journalists promoting establishment narratives, and shock jocks and controlled-opposition figures pushing fall-back propaganda (loudly-advertised phony deplatforming pogroms may be instituted against these latter figures with declining levels of interest in order to remind you, the rube, that they exist). The professional idiot is intensely adverse to actual productive work, and invariably gravitates to careers in government and its associated parasitic organizations, or to other roles permitting him to talk for a living.
The difference between a professional idiot and a traitor is that the idiot believes in the bullshit he spouts whereas a traitor is consciously aware of the hidden goals of the entity he supports or receives compensation from. That said, the line differentiating professional idiocy from treason is amorphous, and much apparent "idiocy" is simply a cunning ruse on the part of knowing agents of influence, so much so that, for the clearest picture, the prudent observer will invert Hanlon's Razor to read thus: "Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice."

A voluntary tax that is quite popular, usually used for education. The Idiot Tax may be paid in $1, $2, $5 or $10 increments but combinations are possible. The greater the idiot one is, the greater the tax one pays. Idiot Tax receipts can be scratch-off or have a combination of numbers. Also known as the lottery.
