Comments on the clue
1.Nice clue though treatment of 'tax' a bit laboured; needs punctuation but consciously avoided? Still, made my cut
2.Nice topical surface reading
3.Nice idea but a bit clumsy?
4.Would "certainly" not indicate SURELY? At that point, I'm not sure "almost" can indicate just the first half (SUR).
