....the cornerstone of our rural economy....

....I think of it as responsible citizenship. It beats cawing a gobbledegook cacophony in the back 40 because you don't like paying a fair share of taxes....


I wonder how the 'rural' property tax rate say for folks in your neck of the woods, and maybe for the folks in Halifax compares. I wonder if it's 'fair' for the taxpayer to subsidize the vacation, hunting grounds and wink grape farms of the elite playgrounds of the rich. I wonder what would make a lib elite, not you, jump up on a soap box and belittle that taxpaying working poor in your capital city. Why does he have to subsidize the haves, with disproportionate tax rates on a tiny little house on some tiny little lot.

Hey, I wonder if one person's partisan 'poison' might be seen by another as pc cancerous hypocrisy.
