I'd buy it before going away if I were you.  God knows what ridiculous
price it will have risen to by July. :(

Shrug. Price is not really a concern. I would still have to buy it to earn a 
living. I just hate paying taxes on principle.

This country not only has a north south divide. It has a divide between 
earners and welfare recipients. Welfare is too readily available.
If I were appointed dictator, the first ones sent to the gulag would be the 
hangers on and the whingers.
The only whinging allowed would be that whinging I approved of. I would 
reserve the right to withdraw approval without notice too.
