I'll correct that for you Greg, the governments aren't just taxing its people's, it's over taxing the backbone of the country, the workers. Those of us who go to work just to pay more tax or a new levy or whatever else they can get away with or what else they want to call it, all the while those that contribute nothing into the country's economy get a free ride and demand more for doing nothing.Well said,That's the governments cut for allowing him to spend his hard earned money that he had already paid a tax on to earn. They get you coming and going. It's the same here in the good old USA. God Bless America we learned everything we know about Taxation from the Brits.$900 tax? What exactly did the government do to deserve that?
It would be fair to say that governments are over taxing their peoples in most developed countries these days, and sadly, they keep on inventing new ways to tax us more.
Greg.
LOL, you know you want too, but if you do, uninformed people just call you a (insert whatever name you feel here) Unfortunately the governments of the developed world sold us all out decades ago, to help developing nations, but there was nothing at all in it for any of them. Really though owning an American classic car is not really that much cheaper (sometimes it is though) than a local classic car. Some stuff I've bought for my Mustang has been cheaper (including shipping) than buying things for my XA GS. The only real downside to buying stuff from suppliers in the U.S. is the shipping and some countries have no way of getting out of paying taxes on their purchases, at least in Australia it's tax exempt under $1000 Aus. That's the only downside as every place I've purchased things from in the U.S. has been great to deal with and are very customer oriented, unlike the half assed service you get here in Australia, a lot of places could learn something from the suppliers over there.I want to post, I want to post! I would likely receive a warning for being on a political rant about the forced redistribution of wealth and consolidation of power in the form of a "we know what is best for you" under informed and corrupt central government. I do feel for all of you owning American cars overseas. It takes money and determination. Hang in there.
