The Plan provided that a 2% tax would be levied "on the gross value of each business, commercial, and/or financial transaction," to be paid by the seller. There were three eligibility requirements to receive benefits under the Plan: the person had to be retired; "their past life is free from habitual criminality;" the money had to be spent within the U.S. by the pensioner within 30 days of receipt.
