We pay too much.
I'm all for everyone contributing for the greater good, but the GST, and PST on clothing is too much. GST on house sales is also crazy. - Wed, 28 May 2008 2:49pm

I'm totally down with a sales tax, if it would mean an end to income tax.

It makes sense to me to tax people on what they spend, not what they earn. If you want to live like a millionaire and purchase expensive things, then yeah, you should pay higher taxes then the guy who drives a firefly and lives in an apartment.

Income tax is a crime. - Wed, 28 May 2008 5:01pm

I don't think taxes are so much of a crime as how they are spent. That's the crime. - Wed, 28 May 2008 10:49pm

A hearse is the vehicle which conveys each of us to our final resting place. The word might evoke thoughts of cars and trucks driving us to our graves or the horse cart leading up to the pyre.

To the hearse's padding and curtains and carving go the job of easing the passage, for the spectators in equal if not greater measure even so than for the participant.

Hearse is the voices of J McLaughlin and Grayson Walker, guitar and accordion respectively, and an attempt to make our passage more comfortable. They have been told that despite their obvious focus on the participants of their performances, spectators also find solace in the evening Hearse.

"Cavalcade of the Scars shows that, at least in the case of Victoria, this kind of artistic incest can lead to some amazingly beautiful musical moments... highlights include Hearse’s “Bonnie Parker,” a dark, accordion-fueled torch song..." - Vue Weekly

Yes, we pay far too much. Curerntly reading up on doing a will and I can't believe how much tax is owed after you're dead. fuck me. I was quite surprised that the property taxes didn't spike too much this time, though. - Fri, 30 May 2008 8:59am
