I find it surprising that anyone would find it surprising that politicians are doing everything they can to keep themselves in power.

PS Eddy Beers, not so good to see that stinky political corectness is alive and well on the new CPuck.
Lol, 2 things.

1. The guy you're 'agreeing' with thinks that natives being paid out for suffering under the residential program are 'bloody leeches'. If you do as well, then I guess you're peas in a pod.
2. I'll hazard a guess and suggest that his comment was made because of the circumstances and context here. He thinks spending tax dollars on native settlement is a waste of money. He also goes on to talk about what he'd like to see changed on his tax form... so... he's not exactly preaching an anti-tax manifesto here.

I don't infer that he believes, by default, that all taxes collected at all times is organized theft. Of course, he could come out and agree with you. But I doubt he, or anyone else will, given the inflexibility and straight out impracticality of your philosophical theory.

Until you realize that anarcho-capitalism is a fantasy that has little/no impact on North American/European 'reality', we'll continue to butt heads on these issues. Not that I mind, of course.
