The Hell?

This is the damnedest thing I've read today:

"These are economists who believe [the Canadian Goods and Services Tax] is a good tax; which of course comes from the school of economics that believes there's such a thing as good taxes.

This is from Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada, trained economist....

...And, apparently, anarchist.

After all, the only kind of person who would say that taxes are an unquestionable evil--which is what Mr. Harper said, if not in so many words--is the kind of person who believes that the services that taxes pay for are of no worth whatsoever.

And that, my friends, is an anarchist. I doubt even his good buddy John Howard would go THAT far. But, apparently, he did.

I look forward to the black flag being hoisted over Canada's Parliament.
