what are the tax state side for your most used commodities?
In NZ the tax is over the top for a few examples
Gas $1-81 a liter 75% tax
Cigarettes $20 pkt 77% tax
Beer $6 for 440 mls glass [bar price] 75% tax
Income tax 19.5% to 38% plus 12.5% gst on everything [going up in oct to 15.5%] you buy and services that you need
The government also want to charge a fart tax on stock on their farms, do you believe that?
Think about it, is it fair to all concerned?

Havn't tried spirals yet but I am going to my good friend Judy sent me some , I have also tried cutting with the blade in reverse but that was a stupid mistake as it was not intended to be, I have had the blade upside down I think it was a double reverse and that cut sort of, thick eh

On reflection of that remark going the wrong way, a freind of mine was stopped going the wrong way on the motorway, he explained to the officer that it was raining so hard he lost his way, he was taken to court and was let off, the judge said he believed his story, this friend of mine at the time was 98 and his girl friend who was at our place for lunch today was at the time only 92, frank had his 100 birthday this year and said he was giving up driving, and sold his car
So there
