Only one of these things draws media attention

Whats that? Trans people?

Slaughta you oughta

More like, sometimes even a calculator can be a clock.

Is that Dean Ween pushing a little daisy?

You should read Flatland it’s an awesome book and blew my mind as a young textile geek.

Dude, politics is a system that society has created to prevent change. When you get that, the western system of governance makes more sense.

You’re looking at it from the wrong side. Imagine a politician saying, “we’re starting a new tax, 20% of your income”. You ask why, what’s it for and he says “everything!” how keen are you for that?

All taxes were created one at a time and sold to people individually. Politicians said “we need money for x, we need to tax y to pay for it”. Run for office on a platform of eliminating all taxes with your omnibus tax reforms and we’ll see how it goes.

I think because when a tax is getting implemented the people want to know exactly why they pay it and what it’s for.

Here we have school boards that manage a very large area of many schools. The taxes of many municipalities pool to fund many schools. These tax systems are old and probably very hard to change. I’m sure there are better ways to do things but the political might to change the system isn’t there.

I’m all for tax reform, but people need to understand what taxes pay for what stuff. I’m sure municipalities would like a different way to generate revenue than property taxes as well.

In Canada we like “sin” taxes on bad for you things. The lottery funds schools, liquor taxes fund health care for example.

I want to pay and gladly will for community enrichment,

Most people say this and I agree. And then the comment under you is complaining about paying property taxes which directly pay for these things you’d like to see funded.

Here’s my sign.

Which one of those is a third?

OP probably played football in high school or something.

Fair. Shamed probably is the wrong word and I shouldn’t purport to know about what actually went down aside from a possibly misremembered documentary I watched once.

And he was a gay guy that Mr. Rogers shamed into staying closeted.

I can’t tell if it’s an Americanized version of lighter or litre.

The worst part is, after you block all the foreign language communities, all the Linux, all the loli anime, there’s very little left.

AROOO!

We’re talking about Dr. Snuggles right?
