this is probably the most sensible thing i've read in this entire thread

i also find it rather funny how it's obvious who the canadians in this thread are.



what i don't get is why no one busted out a little math here... they're talking about $1 trillion over 10 years for a country of 300 million.

that's $333 more in taxes per year per person over the next decade, or about $28 a month. which is less than a store bought cup of coffee per day...
