I want to be Arnold Vinick Funny thing is, Bob Allard was the name of the richest man in my home city of Edmonton back in the '80's and '90's (even richer than then-owner of the Edmonton Oilers, Peter Pocklington). We have several buildings (all privately owned) and one main artery street (city owned) named after Bob Allard here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, do you REALLY believe old school land tax that was previously dependent on a large majority of the population being rural landowners to be effective would fund the government services and infrastructure of today? Even the rapid advances in technology alone has jacked up the price tag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously you're speaking from an uneducated, blanket-viewpoint, propaganda-laden, McCarthyist point-of-view making old Cold War clichéd lines and scripts about a system you don't really understand, especially in it's form in nation like the Scandinavian ones where it actually has been successful.
