Finally - justice.


Only it's not enough - $5 is a better figure.


Fortunately if you know how, you can make your own tax free beer and
bypass
the socialist march in this particular tax.


We Canadians pay $20 and up for a 12 pack, and stand in line for health
care
with waits as long as 2 years. *And 3 times what Americans pay for hard
liquor. *Jim Beam, $45 a bottle. *So I gave up drinking, figure between a
boat and booze, booze looses. *Certainly lowers the standrad of your
lifestyle and I am lucky, I can afford a boat.


When Obama's promises are fulfilled, you will wonder where your pay cheque
went. *The gross will look great, but the net will suck. *Price of statism
and liberalism.


You sort of missed my point.


But that's ok -it's the spirit that counts. *:)


Sorry about that. *I am still realing and rank mad at my last year Canadian
tax bill. *Basically cart over 1/2 the cheque to government in one form or
another.


Friend, the one-half is the pay cheque. the other "one form or
another" is at least one-fourth more.... or more.

Man, if you bitch like this about taxes in the US, you must be a
well-known quantity in your neighborhood.

What's the equivalent of the John Birch society in Canada?


Don't currently live in the US, but did for almost 10 years. Don't know
John Birch Society at all.

Wait until Obama statism catches up to Canada, then you will understand.


Canada is way to the left of the US. Do you hide from your neighbors?

That is very close, but if the people I saw in the restaurant at the
fancy yacht club in Halifax are an indication of the average boater in
Halifax, the residents in Marathon Key are all youngsters. I swear, it
looked like the average age of the people eating in the restaurant was
about 85. Even the wall where they showed the current and past
Commodores looked like photos from the local nursing home. Most of the
Commodores I have seen in other yacht clubs are "youngsters" in the
40's-50's. I hope the Commodores in that club have one hell of strong
staff, because they would consider the day a success if they were able
to crawl out of bed.

Homebrew. That's the answer to a LOT of problems!
Saw a T-shirt that had a picture that looked like the puzzle on Wheel
of Fortune. It had the following on it, I'll use a _ for the blank
spaces:
AL_OHOL


Underneath it said "Sometimes alcohol IS the answer"!


I was always humoured by the t-shirts in the mid 70's.

"Reality is for people who can't handle drugs"- Hide quoted text -

Yep! I actually browsed some "vintage" 70's t-shirts the other day!

He may have mentioned the city/town but I can't remember.
Most people live in Calgary, Edmonton or Fort McMurray
